Why it matters. Milk allergy is one of the most common food allergies in children. People who avoid milk because of lactose intolerance may also react, though usually less severely.
Symptoms and when to get help
Look out for
- an itchy, tingling mouth
- a raised itchy rash (hives)
- swelling of the lips, face or eyes
- stomach pain or being sick
Get help urgently
- swelling of the tongue or throat, difficulty breathing or swallowing, wheezing, feeling faint, or collapse — use an adrenaline auto-injector if you have one and call 999, saying it is anaphylaxis
This is general information based on NHS public guidance, not medical advice. In an emergency call 999. For urgent advice use NHS 111 (NHS 24 on 111 in Scotland) or, in Northern Ireland, your GP or out-of-hours service.
