Assess your symptoms

First, assess your symptoms. Reactions can range from mild to severe, including:

• Mild Symptoms: An itchy mouth, a few hives or mild itching, and mild nausea or discomfort.
• Moderate Symptoms: Itching, eczema, or hives all over the body, some trouble breathing, sneezing, slight, dry cough, odd taste in mouth, and discomfort, nausea or vomiting.
• Severe Symptoms: difficulty breathing or swallowing, swelling of lips, tongue and/or throat, which may cause hoarseness, throat tightness or a lump in the throat, weakness, dizziness or confusion, feeling of impending doom, loss of consciousness.

 
Safest step: Seek medical help

Even if symptoms seem minor, you should still inform your healthcare provider or seek medical help to ensure you do not have a severe reaction. If symptoms are severe, this could be a life-threatening situation known as anaphylaxis, and you should seek emergency medical help immediately.

 
Over-the-counter remedies

For minor symptoms, over-the-counter antihistamines can help relieve symptoms. Always check with a doctor or pharmacist to ensure the medication is safe for you, especially if you have other health conditions.

 
Alert your surroundings

Let those around you know about your allergic reaction in case your symptoms worsen and you require additional assistance.

 
Get diagnosed

If you're unaware of your allergies, it's essential to get tested to prevent similar incidents in the future. Most allergists will use skin tests or blood tests to determine what allergens you're reacting to.
