Allergic reaction : If you have asthma symptoms, consider a virtual consult with Healthtap.
The spurs may be sent for analysis including eosinophils.
A blood eosinophil count and IGE level. Take an antihistamine and please have an allergy panel blood test.
An infection can trigger an allergic reaction but most likely you have exposure without infection.
