Allergies
Allergies occur when the immune system reacts to foreign substances, known as allergens. The immune system produces antibodies to combat these allergens, leading to inflammation of the skin, sinuses, airways, or digestive system. Allergic reactions can vary widely from person to person, ranging from mild to life-threatening. While allergies cannot always be cured, treatments can help alleviate symptoms. Children are particularly susceptible to allergies, especially if there is a family history of allergic conditions. Dr. Sagar S. Warankar is a leading child allergy specialist in Navi Mumbai and a renowned child skin allergy specialist in Mumbai. He is also recognized as one of the best pediatric pulmonologists in Mumbai.
