A doctor has pointed out the risk of allergies during New Year's Eve feasts

Allergologist Lyudmila Lapa has warned that on any New Year's Eve table there is usually at least one dish that causes allergies.

In a conversation with Radio 1 on Saturday, December 28, the specialist specified that it could be raisins in the cake or something else that "the body does not need". It depends on the "hyperreaction and immune system of a particular person".

To the main signs of an allergic reaction, the doctor attributed the rash, urticaria. If it appeared together with itching, you should consult a doctor.

In addition, allergies can manifest themselves in the form of swelling of the throat, which often occurs due to common apples or large consumption of sweets. Sometimes candida glossitis - swelling of the tongue - can occur.

According to the medic, allergies are multifaceted, and to avoid its occurrence, it is necessary to be examined by specialists.

December 24, Ludmila Lapa warned about a possible allergy to tangerines. According to her, citrus products are allergic, so one should use them with caution.
