Accepted Answer

Yes: Yes they can cause vomiting, abdominal cramps and diarrhea.

Question 2

owen often throws up (abt 3x wk) after meals, usually if he's tired before eating. not consistent with food allergy. acts fine after throwing up.

Accepted Answer

Vomit vs regurgitate: Milk, eggs, wheat, soybeans, fish, crustacean shellfish, tree nuts &amp;peanuts cause 90 % of food allergic reactions. If you have not identified any food triggers to his recurrent episodes of vomit/regurgitation, then evaluation is key to determining if this is a behavioral anomaly that needs to be corrected early, or a disease process that should be fixed.

Question 3

can i give my 15 month old peptobismol? she keeps throwing up with no signs of fever or illness.  we have checked food allergies, ans gerd (taking zantac (ranitidine) 2x daily). i cannot figure out what's wrong :-(

Accepted Answer

I wouldn't: Pepto has salycilates which we don't give tom kids under 16 because of an association with liver failure/death (Reye syndrome).Wet burps that do not result in problems with hydration often decrease with age as the reflux improves.If the kid is growing well. I would leave it alone.

Accepted Answer

Less than a day: If the symptoms you are asking about are really due to food allergy, they should begin almost immediately after eating the food and resolve in several hours but may last a day.

Question 5

Question 6

Accepted Answer

Hard to tell: But if it has been present for 3 days and not getting better, it is only prudent for you to consult your doctor about this issue especially if you have been to a less developed country within the past 2 weeks.

Question 7

do food allergies last a lifetime, or do they eventually go away?

Accepted Answer

No: The immune system builds more memory of prior exposure over time, so the likelihood of food allergies decreasing or resolving is very low.

Question 8

how long does an food allergy rash reaction last for a baby?

Accepted Answer

Baby rash: It can last for days to weeks depending on the allergic agent.

Question 9

i am suffering from food allergy and i have been taking fexofinadine 120 mg two times a day since last 10 years .i have infection in gall bladder also?

Accepted Answer

???: Gall bladder infections do not feel or look like allergies. Food allergies are best handled by avoiding the food in question, or rarely by desensitization - not by chronic antihistamine use!

Question 10

if kids can grow out of food allergies, is it possible to grow into a food allergy? within the last two years i have started getting sick with dairy.

Accepted Answer

Yes: Just as allergies can occur at any age, they can resolve at any age.

If you are having problems with dairy, you want want to try lactaid - if you have lactose intolerance, it should help.

Food allergies can present as any symptoms, but usually, it presents as nausea, upset stomach, loose stools, or blood in stools.
