Common allergens
Allergies can be mild or severe, depending on the person’s immune system and exposure to an allergen. Mild reactions typically result in rashes, nasal congestion, and slight swelling of the site that made contact with the allergen. Severe reactions can develop into anaphylaxis, which is manifested by airway spasms and difficulty breathing. If a person has a history of severe allergic reactions and anaphylaxis, be mindful if he or she is exposed to any of the following common allergens. Epinephrine is usually injected before the symptoms of anaphylaxis start, after exposure.
- Airborne allergens – pollen, animal dander (dead skin cells), dust mites, mold
- Food – peanuts, shellfish, eggs, milk
- Insect venom – bees, wasps, hornets
- Latex – gloves
