Mastocytosis is a rare, serious condition in which too many mast cells are found in one or more organ systems of the body. Mast cells normally help protect the body from things that can cause injury or illness . In mastocytosis, these cells accumulate in numbers that are greater than normal and release substances that cause allergic-type reactions and symptoms such as flushing, itching , anaphylaxis, headaches, abdominal pain , asthma-like symptoms or delayed reactions.
An allergist is a doctor who specializes in the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of allergies.
Remember that for the proper selection of health professional that treats mastocytosis you must consider the nature, severity and symptoms you are presenting.
