Can be son be allergic to milk?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It happens: The bovine protein can cause allergies in kids and adults.Less than 1% of kids truly allergic in early childhood. These have significant symptoms like hives, pinkish bloody stools, or swelling of the lips.Some have only minor symptoms. Many other kids have or develop intolerance to the main sugar in milk, leading to gas, cramps, loose stools. Blood tests can determine if this is present.
