I'm experiencing an itchy throat and a dry cough after eating raw mango. This only seems to happen at the beginning of the mango season and I dont have any other symptoms, like a cold. Is it normal to have this kind of reaction from eating mango? Could it be an allergic reaction? Do you have any remedies or tips to help with this?

It's not just itching eitherthere's noticeable swelling, and it's super irritating. I've been taking cetirizine tablets to help with the itching, but they leave me feeling dizzy afterwards.
