Allergy Bracelets

Allergies can be extremely serious and even life threatening. When someone is allergic to a particular substance, such as a food or an environmental factor, their immune system mistakes the harmless substance for a threat and produces an antibody reaction. This reaction can range from mild symptoms such as itching or a runny nose to more serious symptoms such as anaphylaxis, a potentially life-threatening reaction that can cause airway constriction, swelling in the throat, and difficulty breathing. If left untreated, this reaction can be fatal. It is therefore important to be aware of possible allergic reactions and to take proper precautions when needed, like a medical id bracelet.
