Personal history of allergy to serum and vaccine - what does this mean

Allergy to serum and vaccine is an immune-mediated reaction to proteins found in serum or vaccine components. it is caused by an ige-mediated response to the antigen, leading to the release of histamine and other inflammatory mediators, resulting in symptoms such as hives, swelling, itching, difficulty breathing, and anaphylaxis.

What happens during the disease - personal history of allergy to serum and vaccine

The pathogenesis of the disease is likely due to an immunologic reaction to the serum and vaccine, which occurs when the body produces an immune response to an antigen that it recognizes as foreign. this response can lead to the release of immunoglobulins and cytokines, which can cause inflammation, tissue damage, and the production of antibodies that can cause an allergic reaction.
