A member asked:
Could certain allergies causes certain reactions or do people just react differently?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: people differ in the degree of severity of allergic reaction, from just oral pruritus or no reaction, to florid anaphylactic shock to the same agent, in case of ingested agents, as for inhalants, from no reaction to severe asthma attack or even anaphylactic shock, injectables can have the same ingested agents, hope that answers the long- standing question
