Patient's question:
Twenty-day description of the problem: Always breastfeeding, developed small bumps on the body, the doctor said it's a high protein allergy. How long will it take to get better? It's been two months, and it keeps coming back.Doctor's answer:
Food allergies are abnormal immune responses of the human immune system to specific foods. In other words, certain substances in food (usually proteins) enter the body and are recognized by the immune system as invading pathogens. The immune system then releases a specific type of immunoglobulin E, which binds to the food and generates many chemicals, causing allergic symptoms such as skin redness and swelling, frequent diarrhea, indigestion, headaches, sore throat, asthma, and more.
