Hey, so I had a fish burger about half an hour after drinking milk, and now I'm a bit worried about whether that might cause any issues like skin patches or something. Is this something to be concerned about, or am I just overthinking it?

It's understandable to be concerned about food combinations and their effects. Generally, eating a fish burger shortly after drinking milk is unlikely to cause skin patches or any immediate allergic reactions unless you have a known allergy to fish or milk.

  1. Food Allergies: If you have no history of allergies to fish or dairy, this combination is usually safe.
  2. Skin Patches: These typically develop due to allergic reactions, infections, or other skin conditions, and are not commonly triggered by such food combinations.
  3. When to Seek Help: If you notice symptoms like itching, hives, swelling, difficulty breathing, or any sudden skin changes, seek medical attention promptly.

In most cases, you are likely overthinking this, and no adverse effects will occur. However, if you have experienced reactions to these foods before, or if you develop symptoms, consulting a healthcare professional would be wise.
