Immunologist appointment in Minsk

The human body is a self-regulating protection system: if a virus enters it, strong immunity immediately reacts and destroys it. In cases where the immune defense weakens or, conversely, is excessively activated, an imbalance develops, pathologies of the immune system begin to progress. The treatment of these diseases in Minsk is carried out by immunologists.

Allergic diseases and immunity diseases

Immune diseases are differentiated into 2 categories:

1. Autoimmune, when the immune system is too active, and it begins to purposefully destroy the whole body - allergic reactions, lupus, sclerosis.
2. Immunodeficiency - the weakening of the defence as a result of incorrect coordination between cellular structures.

Immunodeficiencies are divided into primary and secondary. The primary are of a genetic nature, the secondary develop in the process of human life (AIDS, hepatitis, asthma, bronchitis).

What is immunology?

Immunology is a science that studies the reactions of the human body to antigens, the causes of their development and progression. This is one of the few disciplines that are characterized by instability - pathogens constantly mutate, and immunology should change approaches to the treatment of diseases.

Who is an immunologist?

A doctor with a higher medical education who is engaged in solving problems with the immune system is called an immunologist. The specialist is engaged in the prevention and treatment of malfunctions in the immune functioning, controls their effect on the patient's body. In addition, immunologists are involved in the creation of vaccines against various pathologies.

What diseases are connected with immunology?

Along with immunodeficiency and autoimmune conditions, a number of the following disorders are treated in immunology:

• Chediak-Higashi syndrome (gene mutation);
• hay fever;
• autoimmune thyroiditis;
• Shulman's disease (damage to the subcutaneous tissue and muscles);
• autoimmune hepatitis;
• X-chromosomal agammaglobulinemia.

The immunologist also treats diseases of unknown etiology, often recurring purulent, viral and infectious pathologies, and also eliminates allergic reactions.

Pediatric Immunology

Therapy of young patients is carried out by immunologists who specialize in studying the characteristics of the reactions of the child's body and the specifics of treating such conditions. The doctor eliminates the genetic and acquired ailments, fights allergic manifestations and vaccinates babies. When prescribing therapy, the immunologist-pediatrician must take into account that the child’s immunity is not fully formed, therefore, he is not able to fully resist pathogenic microorganisms.
