Allergic reactions: Allergic reactions can be mild or severe and can change in intensity over time. An observed mild reactions to an allergic trigger does not predict the severity of future reactions. A specialist evaluation is suggested to consider the cause of the allergic reaction and the need for an anaphylaxis action plan.
