The desensitization health channel is mainly about desensitization treatment. Desensitization therapy, also called remission therapy, is a popular name for specific immunotherapy. This is a treatment for allergic patients. For substances that cause allergies in allergic patients, use substances extracted from this substance, and the dosage is from small to large. Repeated contact with allergic patients by injection or other administration methods can improve patients' tolerance to this kind of allergic substances (that is, sensitivity to allergic substances), thus controlling or alleviating allergic symptoms. Through desensitization treatment, various symptoms caused by allergy can be alleviated, the discomfort of patients can be alleviated, and the use of antiallergic drugs can be reduced. Moreover, this therapeutic effect is not temporary, but can be effective for a long time.
Not all allergies can be treated with allergies. This is not only related to the type of allergic reaction, but also related to the preparation of allergens. So far, desensitization therapy is mainly used for respiratory allergic diseases caused by inhaled allergens (dust mites and pollen), such as allergic rhinitis and allergic asthma, and also for allergic reactions caused by insects (such as bees and ants) and venom.
There are two commonly used desensitization treatments in clinic: hypodermic desensitization (hypodermic immunotherapy) and sublingual desensitization (sublingual immunotherapy). Subcutaneous injection needs to be carried out in the hospital, similar to vaccination, which is injected in the left arm and the right arm respectively. Sublingual desensitization can be carried out at home, and the liquid medicine is dripped under the tongue (some preparations can be placed directly in the form of tablets), and the dosage is also from small to large, so that the body can gradually adapt.
