Corn allergy: the corn grain is the biggest pollen particle in the plant kingdom, so it cannot be inhaled, rather ingested and some people do have allergy to corn when ingested in any form. See an allergist for evaluation/confirmation, avoid corn for now, check aaaai.org or acaai.org for an allergist in your area, best wishes
