This is one of the most common symptoms of a Pomelo allergy. These reactions may include a rash, itchiness, or hives. The skin may also become red and swollen. These symptoms mostly occur where the skin has come into direct contact with the fruit.
Pomelo allergy can cause a variety of digestive issues. These can include nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, or diarrhea. These symptoms typically occur shortly after consuming the fruit and can last for several hours.
Some people who are allergic to Pomelo experience respiratory symptoms. These could include a runny or stuffy nose, coughing, shortness of breath or wheezing. In severe cases, it could lead to anaphylaxis, a life-threatening reaction that requires immediate medical attention.
An allergic reaction to Pomelo can cause the mouth, throat, lips, or tongue to swell. This can make it difficult for the person to talk or breathe. This symptom requires immediate medical attention as it could lead to suffocation.
Some people may experience dizziness, lightheadedness, or even fainting as a reaction to the Pomelo. This can be due to a drop in blood pressure caused by the allergic reaction.
An anaphylactic shock is a severe and potentially life-threatening allergic reaction. Common indications include difficulty in breathing, sudden drop in blood pressure, rapid heart rate, and feeling of confusion or disorientation. This symptom is a medical emergency and requires immediate treatment.
Recognize your symptoms?
Recognizing if you have a Pomelo allergy involves observing specific symptoms that occur when you consume or come in contact with this citrus fruit. Here is the step-by-step guide that can help.
Observe Immediate Physical Reactions
Note Digestive Troubles
Watch Out for Respiratory Symptoms
Keep in mind that these symptoms may vary from person to person and might not manifest in all cases. If you experience these symptoms specifically after consuming pomelo and not with other fruits, it might suggest a potential pomelo allergy. In severe cases, an allergic reaction can lead to anaphylaxis, which is a serious medical emergency. If you suspect you have a pomelo allergy, consult with a healthcare professional or allergist for further testing and management.

Am I eligible?
The most straightforward method to prevent an allergic reaction to pomelo is to avoid consuming the fruit in any form. This includes not only the fresh fruit, but also any foods or drinks that may contain pomelo as an ingredient.
It's important to read food labels thoroughly, as pomelo can be an ingredient in a variety of food products, including desserts, beverages, and even certain sauces. Ensuring that the foods you consume do not contain pomelo can prevent allergic reactions.
When dining out or eating food prepared by someone else, always ask if pomelo or its derivatives were used as an ingredient. This aware inquiry can help protect you from an allergic reaction.
If you have been prescribed any emergency medication like an EpiPen for severe allergic reactions, always carry it with you. In case you unknowingly consume pomelo, immediate access to the medication can be a life-saver.
