Swelling
Swelling of the lips, face, tongue, and throat, or other parts of the body can be a key symptom of fish allergy. This swelling can make breathing difficult and potentially life-threatening if not treated promptly.
Digestive Troubles
Fish allergy can also cause digestive symptoms such as abdominal pains, vomiting or diarrhea after consuming fish. These symptoms may occur due to the immune system's adverse reaction to proteins found in fish.
Skin Reactions
Contact with fish or consumption of fish can cause skin reactions such as hives, eczema or itching. These symptoms are a result of the body's immune system reacting to fish proteins.
Respiratory Issues
Fish allergy can result in wheezing or having trouble breathing. Sometimes, the reaction could escalate into anaphylaxis, a severe, potentially life-threatening reaction.
Nasal symptoms
A person allergic to fish can experience symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, or nasal congestion when they come in contact with fish.
Dizziness or Fainting
Fish allergy can cause dizziness, lightheadedness or fainting. These symptoms can occur when the body goes into shock in response to the fish protein, leading to a sudden drop in blood pressure.
