This would include any food or drink or dust or pollen or animal dander or medication or chemicals used to clean or creams/soaps/lotions etc. Any substance can cause an allergic reaction.
To determine the source, you may need to consider allergy testing. This can be in the form of a blood sample sent to the lab or skin prick testing. The blood to the lab should be able to be done by your GP but skin prick testing would need an allergist or dermatologist.
I hope this helps
