Dr. Wang Mingxuan
Symptoms of anaphylactic shock generally include rapid breathing, increased heart rate, and rash; in some cases, patients may even experience loss of consciousness and a drop in blood pressure—extremely critical conditions. In terms of management, the first step is to eliminate the cause of the allergy. If the allergen is clearly identified, it should be avoided immediately. At the same time, emergency first aid measures must be promptly administered based on the specific symptoms.
