WHAT TO DO IF YOU HAVE CONSUMED ALLERGENS FROM BUFFALO CHICKEN FRIES
If you are allergic to one of the allergens present in Buffalo Chicken Fries from Burger King (Milk, Wheat, Soy, Eggs) and you accidentally consumed it, it's important to act quickly to manage your symptoms and prevent any severe allergic reactions. Here's what you can do:
Check Your Symptoms
Monitor yourself for common allergy symptoms such as sneezing, hives, nausea, abdominal cramps, wheezing, or a runny nose. If you see these symptoms, take necessary actions right away. If you don't see these symptoms, continue to monitor for up to 24 hours after consumption.
Use Antihistamines or EpiPen
If you realize you have consumed something you are allergic to and start to feel a reaction, use an antihistamine immediately if you have it on hand. If you have been prescribed an EpiPen (common in people with severe allergic reactions), use it following the instructed guidelines.
Seek Medical Attention
If you experience severe symptoms, such as difficulty breathing, tightness in the chest or throat, fainting, severe skin rash or swelling, seek immediate medical attention. It's better to be safe and get checked out at an urgent care office or hospital emergency room.
Discuss with your Allergist
After the incident, consult your allergist to discuss potential treatments to minimize the risk of future incidents.
Learn about Curex
Curex is a leading allergy immunotherapy company that offers tailor-made treatment for patients with allergies. They offer subcutaneous immunotherapy (SCIT) and sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) treatments which can provide relief from multiple allergies.
Curex treatments work by administering small doses of the allergen to the patient over time. This helps your immune system to become less sensitive to the allergen. In many cases, it can significantly reduce the severity of allergic reactions, or even eliminate them completely. Curex develops treatment plans based on individual patient's allergy profile.
However, remember to always discuss with your doctor or allergist before starting any new treatments.
