IgA Deficiency
IgA deficiency is one of the most common immunodeficiencies and consists of low or absent levels of immunoglobulin A, an antibody that protects mainly the mucous membranes of the respiratory and digestive tract.
Common symptoms: Many people have no discomfort, but in others it is associated with more frequent respiratory or digestive infections, allergies or certain disorders related to the immune defenses.
When to see a doctor? It is advisable to be evaluated when there are repeated infections, unusual reactions or when tests show this finding.
Which specialist treats it? The allergist and the immunologist study this type of immune defense disorder; in children the pediatrician takes part and, if there is kidney involvement, the pediatric nephrologist. Reviewing the case with a professional allows the finding to be interpreted within your overall health.
