Guide To Milk Allergy Symptoms

Wheezing And Coughing

Wheezing and coughing is another symptom of a milk allergy. This reaction is also caused by the release of histamine and the resulting inflammation. As the histamine travels through the body it causes inflammation of the tissues and cells. This is also true for the lungs. As the lungs become inflamed, it becomes difficult for breath to travel through the airways, which causes the whistling sound associated with wheezing. While wheezing and coughing on their own may not be life-threatening, they are a sign air is not traveling properly through the airways. This symptom should be monitored, especially when accompanied by breathing difficulties.
