The symptoms of allergic constitution are diverse, mainly including: 1. Skin reactions: The most common symptoms, such as skin rashes, itching, swelling, and in severe cases, blisters, eczema, and urticaria may occur. These symptoms often recur. 2. Respiratory system symptoms: When allergens are inhaled, symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, coughing, and difficulty breathing may occur. Severe cases may lead to allergic rhinitis or allergic asthma. 3. Digestive system symptoms: After consuming allergenic foods, gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and diarrhea may occur. Some patients may also experience gastrointestinal bleeding. 4. Symptoms affecting other systems: Such as hematologic manifestations like allergic purpura, and ocular symptoms like allergic conjunctivitis.
