A member asked:

Who tends to get serious allergic reactions to aspirin? is it almost always people w asthma or nasal polyps or can anyone suddenly have a problem?

Dr. John Chiu answered

No: It does not always involve asthma although nasal polyps and sinusitis often precede the onset of asthma in aspirin-sensitivity. This is a condition usually found around ages 30 on the average. Yes it can develop all of a sudden.
