Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) treatments can use supportive measures such as:
Stress Management: Stress can exacerbate MCAS symptoms. Stress reduction techniques, such as mindfulness, relaxation, and therapy, can be helpful.
Avoidance of Triggers: Identifying and avoiding environmental triggers, such as certain medications, insect stings, and environmental allergens, can be important for symptom management.
Physical Activity: Engaging in regular, moderate exercise can help reduce stress and improve overall well-being. However, exercise should be tailored to an individual’s specific needs and limitations.
Monitoring and Follow-Up: Regular follow-up with a healthcare provider is essential to assess the effectiveness of treatment, adjust medications as needed, and monitor for any potential complications.
