Recognize the Symptoms:

The first step to take when you suspect you're having an allergic reaction is to recognize the symptoms. Symptoms of food allergies can vary but usually include one or more of the following:

• Itching or tingling sensation in the mouth
• Hives, itching, or eczema
• Swelling of the lips, face, tongue and throat, or other parts of the body
• Wheezing or nasal congestion
• Abdominal pain or diarrhea
• Dizziness, lightheadedness or fainting

Take Antihistamines:

If you've accidentally ingested the allergen and are starting to experience symptoms, take an over-the-counter antihistamine, provided you're near a hospital and someone is with you. This is because antihistamines can help to alleviate mild symptoms like rashes, hives, and itching.

Call Emergency Services:

If symptoms exacerbate, especially leading to difficulty breathing or loss of consciousness, call emergency services immediately and use an epinephrine auto-injector if one is available.

After Immediate Care

Seek Medical Attention:

Even if your acute symptoms are gone after the initial care, it's important to still seek medical advice. Allergic reactions can have a secondary wave of symptoms - a biphasic reaction, even if the initial symptoms were mild.

Schedule An Appointment With An Allergist:

Visit an allergist so they can perform tests to pinpoint the specific allergens that cause reactions.
