This is an allergy!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about what your daughter is experiencing. These symptoms are typical and suggestive of an allergy. There should be something in the environment that she cannot simply put up with. Let the doctor specifically look for possible causes of this allergy and propose measures to avoid them in her occupation and daily live. It may even come to taking her out of this work environment to suggest different duties at her job site.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and do feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
