ALLERGIES IN CHILDREN
 

Allergies in children may manifest as frequent sneezing, rashes, hives or tummy discomfort. Any child may develop allergies, but they are more common in children with a family history of similar allergies. Early identification of childhood allergies will improve your child’s quality of life and reduce the number of missed school days.

Common allergy triggers in children include:

• Outdoors: tree pollen, plant pollen, insect bites or stings
• Indoors: house dust mites, hair or fur of pets, mould
• Foods: dairy, eggs, nuts, wheat etc

TREATMENT & CARE FOR ALLERGIES IN CHILDREN
