About The Test
Test Overview
A milk allergy is a hypersensitive immune response to proteins found in milk, leading to various allergic symptoms when it is consumed. People with this allergy must avoid milk and related products to prevent these adverse reactions. Milk allergies are often confused with lactose intolerance because the symptoms are similar, however, these are two unrelated conditions.
Symptoms
- Abdominal pain, cramps, nausea, and vomiting
- Diarrhea
- Difficulty swallowing
- Raised, red patches of skin (hives)
- Itching of the mouth, throat, eyes, skin, or any other area
- Nasal congestion or a runny nose
- Shortness of breath
- Anaphylaxis, a potentially life-threatening reaction that impairs breathing and can send the body into shock
