💥 What is anaphylaxis - and why it matters 💥

Anaphylaxis is a rapid-onset, severe allergic reaction that can affect the whole body and if not treated without delay can be life-threatening.

At London Nose and Sinus Clinic Medical (LNSCM), we take all allergies seriously - especially the ones that can escalate fast.

It is important to understand:

✔️ What can trigger anaphylaxis
✔️ How quickly symptoms can appear
✔️ Key warning signs to watch for
✔️ Why immediate treatment with adrenaline matters
✔️ How we help patients understand their risks and stay prepared

✨ With advanced diagnostics, personalised allergy assessments, and ongoing specialist support, we help patients recognise severe allergy risks and manage them confidently - so they can live active, safe, healthy lives.

🚨 Food allergies can be serious - do you know the 14 allergens to be aware of? 🚨

Living with a food allergy means you’re always vigilant - checking ingredients, asking questions, and making careful decisions about what you eat.

Fortunately, UK/EU law requires food businesses to clearly label 14 major allergens, helping you stay safe when shopping or eating out. From milk and nuts to soya and gluten, knowing the risks can prevent severe reactions, including anaphylaxis.

Our latest blog explains more about:

✔️ The 14 major allergens
✔️ Why reactions happen
✔️ How to stay safe eating out + at home
✔️ When to call 999 for suspected anaphylaxis

Read our blog ‘The 14 Food Allergens You Need to Know About’ 👉 https://f.mtr.cool/mbuhjasxxv

Breathe easier with Biological Therapies at LMSCM 🌬️

👃 If you’re living with chronic sinus symptoms or have lost your sense of smell due to nasal polyps, biological therapy could be the breakthrough you’ve been waiting for.

🔬 What are Biologics?

Biologics are advanced medicines made from living cells that target specific parts of your immune system; the areas driving chronic inflammation and nasal polyp growth.

By calming this overactive immune response, biological therapies can:

✔️ Improve nasal breathing
✔️ Shrink or eliminate nasal polyps
✔️ Restore your sense of smell
✔️ Ease congestion, excess mucus, and facial pressure
✔️ Reduce or remove the need for repeated surgery or medication
