I’ve been led to believe that prolonged contact with an object you might have allergies to would lead to greater allergies in time, but also that taking small doses of the said substance over a long duration would build up an immunity. Where do these two facts intertwine?
To list a specific object, poison oak/ivy

I read that food allergies can become addictions because our bodies craves the food we are allergic to (some, not all obviously) and can lead to the addiction of that food. This is counter intuitive on so many levels lol So maybe I understood incorrectly.

If so, will they always progress to a bacterial ( staph ) infection, or can I possibly have some success with clearing this up with warm compresses before it gets to that point? I could not find this info regarding the allergies; thanks.
