Assessment of allergy knowledge among the Palestinian community: A cross-sectional study
The Palestinians' knowledge of allergy is considered good regarding its common causes and symptoms. However, there is still inadequate knowledge about the treatment of allergy and its less common causes. The community awareness of allergy should be improved through targeted campaigns and brochures aimed at achieving earlier diagnosis and proper management to prevent the development of life-threatening complications.
