The culprit of such an allergy most times lies in a hypersensitivity to a protein known as lsquoLTPrsquo or Lipid Transfer Protein which is found in barley a common ingredient in many beers Common reactions can vary greatly and include itchy skin hives nausea and headaches According to the Food and Drug Administration beer (and wine) allergies affect about 1 percent of the population of the United States (about 3139000 people) Yikes
WHAT WOULD CAUSE SUCH A THING
Remember the lovely fashion trend that involved a lot of spandex and leg warmers and scrunchieshellipYeah a lot of us have been trying to forget Especially those affected with this allergy An allergy to touch also known as dermographism is a type of physical urticaria The word dermographism literally means ldquoskin writingrdquo Aptly named due to the fact that a person with this allergy could write their name on their skin using their fingernail A reaction can also be triggered by wearing clothing thatrsquos too tight so nix the spandex While yoursquore at it get rid of the parachute pants and anything neon green too Seriously do it now 13

HOW CAN I TREAT A REACTION
Luckily with this allergy the rash it causes usually goes away within 15-30 minutes
There are also several antihistamines you can use to control the itching sensation
Money I always thought that money was allergic to mehellip So what gives Apparently nickel does If you find yourself becoming itchy and red after handling coins or jewelry odds are you are having a reaction to the nickel found in these items Itrsquos in a bunch of other products too (such as zippers musical instruments and food) The reaction from the nickel usually begins within 24-48 hours after the initial exposure The reaction usually appears on the site of contact however it may appear elsewhere on your body as well Symptoms can include rash itching dry patches of skin and blisters13
13 13 13 13 13 13 13 13 13 13 13 13 13
Much like the allergy to touch mentioned earlier this allergy is relatively easy to treat The best courses of action are to avoid the trouble making substance(s) take an antihistamine and perhaps invest in a topical steroid cream for the rash Blisters and cracked skin from dry patches open up the possibility for infection Keep an eye
out for any puss increasing redness or pain
See your doctor immediately if you suspect your symptoms are getting worse

Clothes amp Shoes Sorry Sandy this isnrsquot the one you want or the one you need Do you want us to tell you about ithellipstud Alright thatrsquos enough of that Irsquom afraid this information wouldrsquove been less than popular in the 1950rsquos This allergy is known as leather-induced contact dermatitis And itrsquos surprisingly common The World Allergy Organization estimates that it may affect as many as 1 in 500 people So what happens if you need to put on that leather jacket to meet up with the T-birds for a musical number on the bleachers (or you know in real life if you just happen to accidentally come into contact with some leather) Not to worry itrsquos pretty easy to treat Dab your skin with a damp cloth or get yourself some topical steroid cream 13 Photo courtesy of Paramount Pictures Corporation copy 1978

The culprit responsible for this allergy is a type of formaldehyde resin called Pera-tertiary butylphenol or PTBP which is used to treat most
manufactured leather products
PARA-WHAT WAS THAT
Cold
Cold urticaria affects more people than yoursquod think about 6 million in the United States alone I hope none of them live in Wisconsin Rates are typically higher in tropical or very cold regions according to the journal Practical Dermatology The cause is a histamine reaction causing your blood vessels to contract in response to cold stimuli whether that be a dramatic drop in temperature cold air or cold water In other words donrsquot be quick to sign up for the polar bear dive Ironically you can even have a reaction on a warm day if a person is sweating and a breeze comes along it could rapidly cool the skin triggering a reaction
Reality Check Though Irsquove made some humorous quips allergies of any kind are no laughing matter Paige Taylor can attest to that Her allergy to cold is very real and very deadly Click the pic to hear her story Courtesy of City Newstrade Toronto

Yep The symptoms of this allergy are typically hives (raised itchy bumps) but in extreme cases hypotension and anaphylaxis - both life-threatening reactions - can occur Scary stuff
The treatment of this particular allergy is simple yet complex Most importantly stay warm the use of antihistamines ndash both oral and topical ndash may be able to control the hives People with this allergy may need to carry an epinephrine auto-injector for severe reactions
Anyone with a suspected allergy should see their doctor to develop their own plan

Much like the allergy to touch mentioned earlier this allergy is relatively easy to treat The best courses of action are to avoid the trouble making substance(s) take an antihistamine and perhaps invest in a topical steroid cream for the rash Blisters and cracked skin from dry patches open up the possibility for infection Keep an eye
out for any puss increasing redness or pain
See your doctor immediately if you suspect your symptoms are getting worse
