If you've unintentionally consumed a Bacon & Cheese Crispy Chicken Sandwich from Burger King and are allergic to any of the allergens present, such as wheat, milk, eggs, soy or fish (due to cross-contamination), it's important to react quickly to ensure your wellbeing. Follow these steps.

 
Recognize the symptoms
 

You should be familiar with your own allergy symptoms, as these are different for everyone. But common symptoms can include any of the following:

• Itching or tingling in the mouth
• Hives, itching or eczema
• Swelling of the lips, face, tongue and throat or other parts of the body
• Wheezing, nasal congestion, trouble breathing
• Abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea or vomiting
• Dizziness, lightheadedness or fainting

If you experience any of these symptoms, it is crucial to take immediate steps to address the allergic reaction.

 
Contact Medical Professionals
 

If you are experiencing a severe allergic reaction or anaphylaxis, you should dial emergency services immediately. This is characterized by severe difficulty breathing, rapid pulse, and dizziness.

For mild reactions like a skin rash or itching, you should reach out to your healthcare provider or a local clinic. They can confirm whether it is indeed an allergic reaction and can then advise you on the next steps.

 
Administer Medications
 

If you carry an EpiPen due to your severe allergies, use it immediately as directed by your doctor. For non-life-threatening reactions, you can take antihistamines to reduce symptoms such as rash, hives, or itching, but remember to follow your doctor's guidance.

 
Visit the ER
 

When in doubt, it is always best to visit the emergency room. If you're experiencing persistent symptoms or reactions that you've never had before, immediate medical attention is required.
