Thanks for contacting HCM. Why is anyone allergic to anything particular can not be determined so it is not possible to find out why you are allergic to drumstick. As to what other things you are allergic to, you can get your allergy test done to find out that. Please avoid drumsticks as sometimes these repeated exposures to allergens can be life threatening.
