Our goal is to help your child feel better while giving you clear guidance on what may have caused the reaction and how to manage it going forward.
Common Signs of a Mild Allergic Reaction
Allergic reactions can look different from child to child, but common symptoms may include:
- hives or skin rash
- itching or redness
- mild swelling around the lips, eyes, or face
- sneezing or a runny nose
- watery or irritated eyes
- mild coughing or throat irritation
If you are unsure whether your child’s symptoms are mild or getting worse, it is best to have them checked by a pediatric provider.
