Anaphylactic shock is the result of a generalized allergic reaction. Septic shock is a result of infections which has progressed to a severe state as in septicemia. Neurogenic shock is a result of severe nerve damage that affects the heart and blood vessels.
Allergic reactions are common. The immune response that causes an allergic reaction is similar to the response that causes hay fever. Most reactions happen soon after contact with an allergen. Many allergic reactions are mild, while others can be severe and life threatening. They can be confined to a small area of the body, or they may affect the entire body. The most severe form is called anaphylaxis or anaphylactic shock.
