My daughter ( 10 months old) has milk allergy, she develops rashes all over her body if she takes milk or any milk product like cheese, butter, curd etc. She is ok with Ghee. We have got her Milk allergy test done and the value has come out to be 11.5 whatever that means... Any suggestions from ur side would be helpful..Thanks
Hello, Thank you for asking at Chat Doctor. I went through your daughters history and would like to make suggestions for her as follows:1. I would like to know exactly how she was tested for milk allergy. At present, I assume her specific IGE levels for milk proteins are 11.5. The fact that she develops rashes after taking milk products also supports the diagnosis of milk allergy.2. At present, avoidance of milk protein (all milk products) is the best treatment of milk allergy. Milk products include all the foods/ Chat Doctor.  3. Although she is ok with ghee at present, it is possible that she may develop rashes if she takes large quantity of ghee. 4. In general, she should avoid all animal milks. Some parents try other animal milk (such as goat milk) as alternative, but 80-90% of milk allergic child
