Question 5

what is symptom for sever egg allergy?

Accepted Answer

Hives, swelling, etc: Symptoms of food allergy are the same regardless of the food - immediate (anaphylactic) hives around the mouth, 2 hours later all over. Swollen lips, tongue, face, eyelids. Expect nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, choking, coughing, difficulty breathing, sense of doom, lightheadedness, loss of consciousness. When not life-threatening as above, chronic exposure may exacerbate eczema.

Egg anaphylaxis (severe reaction) is less common, but more serious.   Egg allergy is more common in children than adults and the triggering protein is usually in the egg white vs the yolk.

Depends: Symptoms of food allergy (egg included) may include hives, cough, shortness of breath, eczema, wheezing, vomiting or diarrhea.

Question 8

could someone with an egg allergy eat baked egg?

Accepted Answer

Depends: In the baking process the protein structure of an egg may be broken down to the point it does not trigger an allergic reaction. Products like icing or whipped egg whites as a pie topping would not fall in this category. Not all egg allergy is created equal. Some just break out in a rash & some can have abdominal pain, difficulty breathing & may go into shock. I don't take chances if a big reaction.
