A member asked:
Might it happen that a person have allergies to milk later in life?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It's possible: Milk allergy generally affects children more than adults, but new onset food allergy can occur at any age. Usually in adults, new onset food allergy is not the usual milk, egg, wheat, etc. An allergist can review the symptoms and using allergy tests can easily confirm if a milk allergy is present or not.
