Common causes of allergies are pollen, food, animal hair, and mold. However, in addition to these general factors, there are many other factors that cause allergies. In fact, an allergy is a malfunction of the immune system, in which a substance that has no effect on normal people causes abnormal hypersensitivity reactions such as hives, itching, runny nose, and cough in some people. Find out regarding 5 unexpected causes of allergies.

◆ Sweat
Sweat is also a problem. Some people are allergic to exercise. For 65% of people with exercise allergies, sweating while exercising is the cause of the allergy. In addition, the remaining 35% are caused by a combination of certain foods, such as flour, and exercise. These people should exercise first before eating. If you exercise following eating certain foods, such as wheat, allergy symptoms such as hives, vomiting, diarrhea, low blood pressure, and difficulty breathing may appear.
◆ Metallic substances
If your skin itches or stings, and you experience hives, swelling, pigmentation, or red spots following wearing accessories such as necklaces or earrings, you should suspect a metal allergy. People who are allergic to metal may have abnormal skin reactions not only to accessories but also to glasses, watch straps, and pants buttons.
When impurities in metal come in contact with the skin, the body’s immune cells overreact, causing an allergic reaction such as hives or itching. Among metals, nickel, chromium, and cobalt are mixed with impurities and easily dissolve in sweat, causing allergies. On the other hand, platinum, gold, and silver have few impurities and do not cause allergies relatively easily. For metal allergy symptoms, you should immediately remove accessories and apply ice to relieve itching and stinging.

◆ Glitter
Some people prefer t-shirts or accessories with glitter. People with craft jobs also often work with chemicals such as glitter. Shiny, a compound made from stone powder mica, can cause allergies that cause hives and rashes.
◆ Semen
Proteins in semen can cause allergies that cause burning pain, itching, and shortness of breath. Occasionally serious reactions may occur. If a woman with this problem is trying to become pregnant, she should consult a specialist to find ways to reduce semen hypersensitivity.
◆ Contact
Some people react sensitively to even small amounts of pressure. For example, if you scratch the skin with your fingernail and write, the letters will swell to the point where you can read them. This symptom, called ‘skin dyskinesia’, causes the skin surface to become red and swollen and itchy. There is no fundamental cure, but symptoms can be alleviated through drug treatment.
