Can I develop a more serious peanut allergy? |
When I eat them i get an allergic reaction. But can it get so bad that when I sniff them I get an allergic reaction?? The usual progression is for allergies like this one, type 1 hypersensitivy reaction, to get progressively worse. This is the same allergic mechanism as people with allergies to bee sting, or shellfish. This can develop into a potentially dangerous allergy so be aware of this. This allergy type is the one where the person can go into shock, their airway can close off and can be fatal. Simply google peanut allergies and you can see that even a wiff of the protein or a tiny tiny tiny amount can set it off. I would avoid peanuts, or any nuts at any cost. I'm not sure if sniffing it would, but touching them can cause a reaction if the allergy is serious and if you eat them when you have an allergy, it will get worse. Allergic reactions to peanuts, when they develop during childhood, can become progressively worse, stay the same,or gradually disappear, but there's no way to predict how this will work out for someone. Doctors are testing the development of procedures to desensitize people to peanut allergies: |

My son is allergic to peanuts. Let me suggest you visit ... No. It would have to be a very severe allergy with full blown anaphalyxis before someone would even come close to dying. ...first thing stop itching it you will only encourage the reaction to get worse ... more scratchy...more itchy!!!!! next stop eating the peanuts.. if this is the only thing you have been having a lot... please avoid at all cost. don't take any chances here, at the end of the day it will be your health that will be affected ...They might get In Salted,first,,,,, ...YES, I am severly allergic to all nuts and please first tell her that when they say it may have something, it usually doesnt, its just made on the same equiptment, second she is not missing out. Al... Well, great, I am just now enjoying my "reduced fat" peanut butter and I think it is better than the regular stuff. ...I am not an expert, but peanut allergies can be quite deadly. I would consult an allergist and try to nail down the cause of the allergic reaction (you didn't list what your reaction was??) |
