Hi, what cause allergies? I am allergic to Eggs. I ate something with eggs in it my stomach started feeling weird and my legs started shaking. Is that normal? My throat starts closing up and my body starts itching when am stung by a bee. When I eat raw onions my throat starts itching. Pineapple makes me vomit. What should I do if I eat pineapple or onions by accident?
Hi, Food allergy occurs when our natural body defense overreacts to exposure of particular substance, treating it as an invader and releasing chemicals to defend against it. Food allergies can lead to mild reactions to life-threatening conditions with symptoms such as low blood pressure, breathing difficulty and dizziness. If something like that happens rush to the nearest hospital. What you need to do:1. Avoid consuming the food that may be causing problems.2. Consult an Allergist for your treatment plan. The only management option for allergies is to avoid consumption of food that may be causing problems. There is hope for new treatment plans which includes consuming small amounts of food allergens and gradually increasing amount. In this new experimental approach a few cases were benefited, but this is only possible under doctors observation, treating at home can lead to serious problems. Consult an Allergist to choose a treatment plan for you. Hope this helps. Stay healthy.
