Identify the Signs of Food Allergy Tips

Food allergy reactions range from mild to life-threatening, depending on the person.

Some common warning signs of a Milder Allergic Reaction to food may include:

• A Tight feeling in the throat, or a hoarse voice.
• Coughing and Wheezing.
• Nausea, vomiting or stomach pain.
• Diarrhea.
• Hives or Skin Rash.
• A Tingling sensation on the lips or tongue.
• Runny nose.

In more serious cases, food allergy may cause a severe reaction called Anaphylaxis, which may cause a person's breathing pathways to narrow, blood pressure to drop, and tongue to swell. This should be treated as a life-threatening medical emergency.
