Why are certain allergies more fatal than others?
In: Biology
Basically, depend what part of your body cause an allergy. An allergy is usually just your body over reacting to something. This overreaction can cause varying issue depending on which part of your body react. Skin allergies will usually cause irritation, as your body tries to push the particles away. Weak food allergies will usually end up causing diarrhea, as your body simply try to expel the perceived threat ASAP. But in some case, the allergy is very strong and it can be in much more dangerous places. Notoriously, the throat. If your throat react badly, it swells up, blocking your windpipe. You die asphyxiated because your throat reacted badly.
