Recurrent infections
Our immune system is constantly on the defense-fighting germs that could cause infections. Sometimes we lose occasional battles against the “germ” and we get ill.
In other circumstances, our immune system may weaken and make a person more susceptible to infection such as when there are immunodeficiencies. It can be associated with other conditions like asthma, allergies and anatomic abnormalities.
You may be suffering from recurrent infections if you:
- need more than four courses of antibiotic treatment per year (in children) or more that two times per year (in adults)
- more than four new ear infections in one year after 4 years of age.
- develop pneumonia twice over any time
- have more than three episodes of bacterial sinusitis in one year or the occurrence of chronic sinusitis
- need preventive antibiotics to decrease the number of infections
- develop unusually severe infections that started as common bacterial infections
- recurrent urinary tract infections
In immunYs, we investigate the cause and potential triggers of the recurrent infections. Depending on the underlying reason, we boost and train your immune system to prevent them. We can boost the immune system with a combination of supplements, personalized auto-vaccines and pre/probiotics.
We can train your immune system and make it stronger to fight against “germs”
