Food allergies occur when the immune system mistakenly reacts to proteins in certain foods. These reactions can range from mild symptoms like hives to severe conditions like anaphylaxis. Treatment involves avoiding allergenic foods, using medications to manage reactions, and in some cases, oral immunotherapy to desensitize the immune system. An allergist can help develop a personalized treatment plan for your child. Learn more about our services here.
