Agammaglobulinemia treatment in Benito Juárez

Agammaglobulinemia is an immune system disorder in which the body produces very few or no antibodies, which reduces the ability to defend against infections.

Common symptoms: It tends to appear from childhood with recurrent infections of the ears, sinuses, lungs, or skin, sometimes more severe or longer-lasting than usual.

Common causes: In many cases it has a hereditary origin that affects the development of certain defense cells.

Which specialist treats it? Its evaluation is usually carried out with the immunologist, the allergist, and the pediatrician when it involves children. If a child or an adult has repeated infections without a clear cause, it is advisable to seek a professional evaluation.
