Allergy is a condition in which the immune system becomes hypersensitive towards substances that are otherwise harmless. These substances are known as allergens and can include dust, pollen grains, animal dander, food, etc.
Allergies cause a myriad of symptoms depending upon the allergen and the severity of allergy.

At Srivaidya's Allergy Doc, I had a fantastic experience. Doctors at Srivaidya Hospital are quite analytical when it comes to allergies and know their thing. I received an allergy test and allergy shots, and my symptoms were completely relieved. I appreciate it. Thank you so much, Srivaidya.
