Having Allergic Reaction, Eyelids Puffy, Tiny Hives On Face. What Could Be Causing This Issue?

I am having an allergic reaction....eyeslids are puffy and scaley, tiny hives on my face and my tounge feels funny. Over the last few weeks I found green tea was the culprit and stopped drinking all tea, was pretty cleared up and then yesterday I ate some soy beans and I am broken out again badly. I found on line where both green tea and soy beans can cause exzema and hives on the face....have you heard of this and do you know of anything else that could be causing this issue?

Hello welcome to HCM.

ALLERGIC reaction occurs when your body system reacts to a foreign substance such as certain type of foods like fish,milk or pollen or dust etc.IT depends on the individual whether you will have an allergic reaction to a substance or not.

SO to prevent it there is only one option ,ie to avoid contact with which you have allergic rection.

KINDLY MAKE A NOTE OF FOOD STUFFS YOU ARE ALLERGIC TO..AND IF YOUR ALLERGY IS SEVERE CONSULT A GP.

FOR MILD ALLERGIES,YOU CAN TAKE ANTI HISTAMINES LIKE TAB.CETRIZINE.

OK AND TAKE CARE..
