Health Tip: Recognize the Signs of Food Allergy Symptoms of a reaction By Diana Kohnle (HealthDay News) -- Food allergy reactions range from mild to life-threatening, depending on the person. The Nemours Foundation says common warning signs of a milder allergic reaction to food may include: A tight feeling in the throat, or a hoarse voice. Coughing and wheezing. Nausea, vomiting or stomach pain. Diarrhea. Hives or skin rash. A tingling sensation on the lips or tongue. Runny nose. In more serious cases, food allergy may cause a severe reaction called anaphylaxis, which may cause a person's breathing pathways to narrow, blood pressure to drop, and tongue to swell. This should be treated as a life-threatening medical emergency.Saturday, May 28, 2011
