Specializes in Allergy and Immunology

Check symptoms: If your child is allergic to food then look for rashes by the mouth and tongue swelling in addition to rashes all over the body and wheezing. If your child is allergic to inhaled pollen, dust or mold then look for nose congestion, wheezing and coughing. If you child is allergic to poison ivy then look for skin rashes with fluid filled blebs. If it is a drug allergy symptoms can be all above.
