Abstract

Allergic diseases encompass a range of hypersensitivity reactions, with anaphylactic shock and Quincke's edema being the most severe forms. Anaphylactic shock is a life-threatening, rapid-onset allergic reaction affecting multiple organ systems, triggered by common allergens like foods, medications, or insect venom. Quincke's edema, also known as angioedema, involves localized swelling, often affecting the face, lips, and throat, which can lead to airway obstruction. Immediate recognition and treatment, primarily with epinephrine, are critical to prevent fatal outcomes. Diagnosis is clinical, with treatment tailored to the severity and underlying cause. Understanding the pathophysiology and management of these conditions is essential for reducing morbidity and mortality in allergic emergencies.
