Milk is widely consumed worldwide. Despite its widespread consumption, the dairy product can trigger allergic reactions in some people. In such people, the immune system identifies certain proteins in milk as harmful invaders and triggers the release of antibodies to eliminate the proteins. When the antibodies recognise the proteins, they signal the immune system to secrete histamines that cause different types of allergic symptoms. The allergic reaction can trigger mild to severe symptoms.

Symptoms of Allergy, Milk

The symptoms of milk allergy vary depending on the severity of the allergy. Some of the most common symptoms include:

  • Hives
  • Stomach cramps
  • Nausea
  • Vomiting
  • Diarrhea
  • Wheezing
  • Shortness of breath
  • Runny or stuffy nose
  • Sneezing
  • Itchy or watery eyes
  • Swelling of the lips, tongue, or throat

These symptoms may occur within minutes to hours after consuming milk or products containing milk.

Test Procedure

The Allergy, Milk panel test requires a blood sample for analysis. The blood sample is collected by a trained healthcare professional in a sterile environment. The healthcare professional will clean the area where the blood will be drawn with an antiseptic solution and use a needle to draw blood from a vein in the arm.

At the lab, the sample is analysed to measure the level of antibodies produced by the immune system in response to milk proteins. The higher the level of antibodies, the more likely an individual is to be allergic to milk.

If an individual tests positive for the Allergy, Milk panel test, they may be advised to avoid consuming milk or products containing milk. Alternative sources of nutrients may be recommended by a healthcare professional.

Management of Milk Allergy

If an individual tests positive for milk allergy, they may be advised to avoid consuming milk and products containing milk.

Benefits of Early Diagnosis

Early diagnosis of milk allergies can help individuals manage their symptoms more effectively. It can also help prevent severe reactions and improve overall quality of life. Additionally, early diagnosis can help individuals identify alternative sources of nutrients that may be lacking in their diet due to milk allergy.
