my toddler has red spots and i am not sure if these spots are results of certain food she ate because this is the first time that she had these allergies. do allergies comes out at an early age? how do we know that our baby has certain food allergies?

There is a certain test for that. I can't really remember the name of the procedure but food allergies can be detected through it. Try to ask your pedia about it.

ok i will just ask our doctor about it. hopefully it will not cost that much.

that is one problem because most test nowadays are using new technology and usually costs a lot. it is really frustrating and sometimes we just can't afford it.

you should take your child for a test because it is very risky just setting it aside because you can't afford it. i am sure you can have the means and it will only take one visit to get the results.

yeah... babies are really sensitive and regarding allergies it should be given an action immediately so as not to get into greater problem.

allergies can come out at any age. you will know that it is an allergy because the result is almost always instantanous. if it is a food intolerance then it is dosage related.

with food allergies it is usually: eggs, peanuts, wheat and shellfish.
