Answer 1

Anaphylaxis due to insect stings occurs in 0.5-5% of the general population and is less common in some individuals who develop mild allergies that are usually treated with antihistamines. It is a systemic reaction that can occur through IgE-mediated responses and is life-threatening.

Step-by-step explanation:

Anaphylaxis due to insect stings occurs in 0.5-5% of the general population and is less common in some individuals who develop mild allergies that are usually treated with antihistamines.

Anaphylaxis is a rapidly developing allergic reaction that can cause a dangerous drop in blood pressure, severe swelling of the throat, and obstruct the airway.

It is a systemic reaction that can occur through IgE-mediated responses and is life-threatening.
