About Hamster Allergy Test | Allergic To Hamsters in Indio
Hamster allergy is an immune reaction to proteins found in hamster epithelium, urine, and saliva.
The immune system can mistakenly identify these proteins as threats and produce IgE antibodies against them. On later exposure, those antibodies trigger the release of histamine and other mediators from mast cells, which produces the familiar allergy symptoms.
People with hamster allergy may notice sneezing, a runny or stuffy nose, itchy or watery eyes, coughing, wheezing, or skin reactions such as hives after handling a hamster or spending time in a room where one lives. Symptoms can also occur without direct contact because allergens travel on clothing and in dust.
A blood IgE test is one way to look for sensitization to hamster epithelium. Results are interpreted alongside the person's history and physical findings, since sensitization on a test does not always mean symptoms will occur, and symptoms can have other causes.
