👉 Hypersensitivity to hydrogen sulfide, also known as hydrogen sulfite, is a condition characterized by an allergic reaction involving the lungs and skin that can lead to respiratory distress or even death if left untreated. It is often associated with exposure to sulfur-containing compounds like sulfuric acid or sulfur dioxide. This condition is more common in individuals who are sensitive to the presence of hydrogen sulfide in their environment, such as those working in industrial areas where there may be a high concentration of sulfur.
