Introduction

Eating something you're allergic to can be a distressing experience. If you've consumed Elote Corn from Bahama Breeze and realized it contains an allergen you're sensitive to, it’s crucial to know the steps to take. This guide provides clear instructions on what actions you should follow immediately after consuming an allergen.

Immediate Steps to Take

1. Stay Calm

• Anxiety can exacerbate symptoms. Take deep breaths and try to remain calm.

1. Identify Symptoms

• Common symptoms of an allergic reaction include itching, hives, swelling, difficulty breathing, stomach pain, and dizziness.

1. Use an Antihistamine

• If symptoms are mild, consider taking an over-the-counter antihistamine such as Benadryl, which can help alleviate some allergic reactions.

1. Seek Medical Help

• If symptoms are severe or worsen rapidly (e.g., difficulty breathing, swelling of the face or throat), seek emergency medical help immediately by calling 911 or your local emergency number.

Managing Severe Allergies

1. Administer an Epinephrine Auto-injector

• If you have a known severe allergy and possess an epinephrine auto-injector (e.g., EpiPen), use it as directed. This can be life-saving.

1. Avoid Future Exposure

• Make a note of the allergen and inform Bahama Breeze staff or any other restaurant in the future to avoid such situations.
