Acknowledging is advancing

Soon after having celebrated in Vancouver, Canada, the World Allergy Congress, Dr. Carlos Crisci, President of the Latin American Allergy, Asthma and Immunology Society tells us about the advances on the allergy syndrome made in all fields: conceptual, therapeutic and social.  There is much talk about the psychological and emotional factor of many diseases that, like allergy and asthma, worsen when the patient’s mood is not at its best.  But, how true is this and what can we do about it from Psychology and Alternative Therapies?

“There have been advances in the acknowledgement that this fact exists.  Although in some countries like Argentina and others of Latin culture, the psychological aspect has been acknowledged for a while, in the rest of world it hasn’t been so.  Specially in Anglo-Saxon countries”, states Dr. Crisci.  According to him, in the last years there has been an acknowledgement he calls indirect, by noticing the repercussion of allergic processes in life quality that, at the same time, have a repercussion on the pathological state in a kind of vicious cycle.  It should also be mentioned there are consequences on other aspects of life, such as work, social, family, school performance, etc.
