Understanding Allergy, Individual Marker, Lemon
What is Allergy, Individual Marker, Lemon?
A simple blood sample test is needed to get accurate results to find out if you’re allergic to all citrus foods, or just lemons. Lemons are used primarily for their juice, and to flavor drinks. But people who are allergic to lemons can develop symptoms after eating or having drinks containing them. The symptoms are frequently localised, which means you will experience them wherever the lemon touches your skin.
Among the symptoms of allergy, it can range from a mild rash to significant blistering, and itching all over the skin. Cutting citrus fruits out of one's diet and avoiding items containing the fruits or extracts can help to decrease or eliminate symptoms.
