Food Allergies Treatment

Question by terra: are peanut allergies always life threatening?
My 13 month old son had an appt with an allergist today, and turns out he is allergic to peanuts! The dr. said the reaction from the skin test was mild, but that doesnt mean anything. He even prescribed me an epi-pen just in case! What i want to know, is if its possible to have a mild peanut allergy, or if its always a life threatining situation? And what are the chances he’ll grow out of it?

Question by Rob: Why are peanut allergies always the deadliest?
…as opposed to every other allergy.

Also, are there other common “deadly” allergies BESIDES peanuts?

Answer by Chris D
Bee and wasp stings can be deadly to some

im going to hazard a guess and say nut tends to be the most deadly because of it being a food and so an allgeric reaction in the mouth closes up air way.
