**Check For Symptoms **

Knowing the symptoms of your specific allergen is important. If you've accidentally eaten a McFlurry and you're allergic to one of the ingredients, you might experience the following:

• Milk Allergy: Stomach discomfort, vomiting, skin rash, swollen lips, tongue, face or throat, coughing or wheezing, diarrhea or bloody stools (especially in children)
• Wheat Allergy: Hives or skin rash, nausea, stomach cramps, indigestion, vomiting, diarrhea, swollen lips, tongue, face or throat, nasal congestion
• Soy Allergy: Tingling in the mouth, hives, itching, eczema, swelling of the lips, face, tongue, throat, or other parts of the body, wheezing or difficulty breathing
• Egg Allergy: Skin inflammation or hives — the most common egg allergy reaction , nasal inflammation, causing runny nose and sneezing, digestive tract signs and symptoms (nausea, vomiting, diarrhea)

**Immediate Steps **

• Stop Eating Immediately: As soon as you realize you are consuming something that you are allergic to, immediately stop eating to minimize the exposure.

• Take Antihistamines: If you have a mild reaction, over-the-counter or prescribed antihistamines may help reduce symptoms. These drugs can be taken after exposure to an allergy-causing food to help relieve skin redness, itching, and hives. However, antihistamines can't treat a severe allergic reaction.

For Severe Symptoms

• Use Emergency Epinephrine: Those with severe food allergies likely have been prescribed self-injectable epinephrine. This is the first line of treatment for anaphylaxis, a severe allergic reaction that can cause death if not treated immediately.

• Seek Medical Help: If you have severe symptoms like difficulty breathing, throat tightness, or feeling faint, it's crucial to seek emergency medical treatment right away.

Consultation With Curex

Curex is a leading allergy immunotherapy company that aims to create safe and effective treatments for food allergies. If you frequently find yourself accidentally eating something you're allergic to, consult with a Curex specialist about their therapies.

Curex focuses on reducing the sensitivity to allergens by exposing the body to small amounts of these allergens over a controlled period of time. This may desensitize your body to the allergen, reducing the risk of a severe allergic reaction.

Long-term allergen immunotherapy may also prevent the development of new allergies and asthma in people with a food allergy. Please note, these treatments should be conducted under the supervision of a healthcare provider.

Prevention

Ultimately, the key to avoiding allergic reactions is to avoid the foods you're allergic to. It's crucial to read food labels and ask about ingredients when eating out.
