6 Common Clues of Allergy
by Adwina Jackson
Your child has an allergy? What are the indications and how should you treat it?
Generally, allergy is defined as an abnormal or hypersensitive reaction from body’s immune system. Allergy can also happen to your child.
This hypersensitivity occurs when there’s a certain element, which triggers allergy, comes into your child’s body. The element is called allergen. You should know that when immune system works normal, this
allergen won’t cause danger to the body.
Based on the American Academy of Pediatrics Guide to Your Child’s Allergies and Asthma, here are some common clues that could lead you to suspect your child may have an allergy:
1. Repeated or chronic cold-like symptoms - that last more than a week or two, or develop at about the same time every year. These could include a runny nose, nasal stuffiness, sneezing and throat clearing.
2. Nose rubbing, sniffling, snorting, sneezing and itchy, runny eyes.
3. Itching or tingling sensations in the mouth and throat. Itchiness is not usually a complaint with a cold, but it is the hallmark of an allergy problem.
4. Coughing, wheezing, difficulty breathing, and other respiratory symptoms.
5. Patches of bumps or itchy, red skin that "weeps" or oozes clear fluid, and forms a crust.
6. Development of hives, intensely itchy skin eruptions that usually last for a few hours and move from one part of the body to another.
Food allergies are often found in babies. However, there are also babies who are allergic to dust, pollen, and furry animals.
How should you treat it?
The most effective treatment for allergy is to keep your child away from the allergens. For example, if she’s allergic to fish, you must not feed her with fish and substitute it with other protein-rich foods.
But, if you’re not certain about what your child is allergic to or he still shows allergic symptoms, consult it with your pediatrician.

Dear women, pay attention to your weight, especially when you’re planning to get pregnant. Hypertension and diabetes may threaten you besides miscarriage and stillbirth if you’re overweight.
Change your eating habits! A preconception visit is very recommended to get nutrition and exercise counseling.
Next, dealing with kids who have allergy may be difficult. The best way to handle it is to keep the kids away from the allergens. Consult your pediatrician for more knowledge!
