Discovering the Allergy

Step 1
If you start experiencing symptoms such as itching, hives, cough or difficulty breathing, you might be having an allergic reaction. Other possible signs of a food allergy can also include a tingling or itching in the mouth, swelling of the lips, face, tongue and throat, or other parts of the body, stomach pain, vomiting, diarrhea, or even a severe, potentially life-threatening reaction (anaphylaxis). If any of these happen, stop eating the Baja Chicken & Bacon Sub immediately.

Step 2
Take an over-the-counter antihistamine if your reaction is mild. It can usually help to mitigate some of the allergic reaction symptoms, such as hives or itching.

Seeking Medical Help

Step 3
If your symptoms persist or get worse, seek medical help at once. If you feel dizzy, have difficulty breathing or feel like your throat is closing, call emergency services immediately as these are indications of a severe allergic reaction.

Preventing Recurrence in the Future

Step 4
After receiving medical treatment, make it a priority to avoid the allergen that caused the reaction. In this case, since the Baja Chicken & Bacon Sub from Subway contains Wheat, Soy, Milk, and Eggs, you should stay away from those foods if you're allergic to any of them. Always check food labels and ask the restaurant staff about food sources and ingredients.

Step 5
Get allergy tested to confirm which ingredient caused the allergic reaction. It will not only identify the specific allergen but also indicate how severe your allergies are to different substances.

Seeking Treatment with Curex

Step 6
If you want to go a step beyond just avoiding the allergen, consider allergy immunotherapy. A leading company offering personalized and effective treatment plans to desensitize your body to specific allergens over time conducts allergy skin tests to determine what substances trigger allergic reactions, then biopharmaceutical engineers create an individualized treatment serum. Over time, patients are administered increasing amounts of the allergen, which can actually modify the immune system's response and eventually significantly reduce or even eliminate the allergic response.

Step 7
Being educated and prepared can help with managing and treating your allergies and avoid uncomfortable or even dangerous situations. And remember, always carry your epinephrine auto-injector if you have previously experienced a severe allergic reaction to food.
