When the immune system breaks down
Such a state when a person’s immunity is broken, already talking regarding a serious health problem – immunodeficiencies, specifies the expert.
“Immunodeficiency is when the cells responsible for protection do not work properly, because of which the entire chain of immune reactions is disrupted and the person remains defenseless once morest the external environment,” explains Philip Kuzmenko. – Most often such a breakdown inherited genetically and manifests itself from birth or following six months or a year – when the antibodies transmitted from the mother die. This is usually due to a defect in the cells of the immune system – B- or T-lymphocytes. Also, immunodeficiency can be obtained by becoming infected HIV AIDS.
The expert clarifies that in a person with immunodeficiency, any cold will be complicated by pneumonia, antibiotic treatment, hospitalization and general severe illness.
– “Broken” immunity is treated with replacement therapy by an immunologist. Treatable and HIV. If you care regarding this issue, it is quite possible to live a long and happy life, says the therapist.
