Itchy Skin
One of the most common symptoms of Yaks allergy is itchy skin. This can be generalized throughout the body or localized to an area that came in contact with the allergen.
Hives
Hives or urticaria can also be seen in people who have Yaks allergy. These are red, itchy, raised areas of skin that appear in varying shapes and sizes.
Swelling
Swelling around the mouth, eyes, and lips is another symptom often associated with this type of allergy. It is caused by inflammation in response to the allergen.
Runny Nose and Sneezing
Respiratory symptoms such as a runny nose and sneezing could also occur. These symptoms are due to an allergic reaction in the nasal passage to particles of Yaks fur or dander that might have been inhaled.
Gastrointestinal Symptoms
Some people might experience symptoms related to the gastrointestinal system like nausea, vomiting or diarrhea. This usually occurs if the allergen was ingested.
Anaphylactic Reaction
In severe cases, Yaks allergy can cause anaphylaxis, an acute allergic reaction that, in some cases, can be life-threatening. Symptoms can include difficulty in breathing, light-headedness, rapid heartbeat, and loss of consciousness. Immediate medical attention is required if this occurs.
