How do you become allergic to dust mites?
An allergy is an over reaction of your immune system to a normally harmless substance called an allergen. If you are allergic to dustmite, you are sensitive to a very common inhaled allergen trigger – house dustmite and its faeces.
On your first exposure, the inhaled allergen enters the nasal passages lined with mucous membrane.
Here the allergen is taken up by the antigen presenting cell which presents it to the T cells, recognising the allergen as a foreign body.
These T cells instruct the B cells, type of white blood cell, to release antibodies called IgE (immunoglobulin E) against the allergen.
On exposure, the allergen binds to the IgE antibodies present on the mast cells, cross linking them. T cells, B cells and mast cells combine to ignite the body’s immune system response to an allergen.
When you are re-exposed to the same allergen, it attaches itself to antibodies that are stuck outside the mast cells.
And the result? Your annoying allergy symptoms including nasal stuffiness, runny nose, itchy, watery eyes, sneezing and mucous discharge of allergic rhinitis, wheezing and shortness of breath, unable to stop coughing, hives, headache and fatigue.
