Dangerous Food Allergy Symptoms

The only cure for a food allergy is avoidance. Anaphylaxis by definition is a sudden and severe allergic reaction.
 

If you see or feel any of the following life threatening symptoms seek emergency medical help immediately:

  • Difficulty breathing
  • Drop in blood pressure
  • Rapid heart rate
  • Swollen tongue, throat, or other part of the body
  • Narrowing of the airways and wheezing (a whistling sound when you breathe)
  • Fainting
  • Dizziness
