Yam allergy can be effectively treated with oral medications and topical ointments. First, take antiallergic medications under a physician’s guidance. If itching occurs on the skin, applying an antibacterial and anti-inflammatory cream can effectively relieve itching—particularly on the arms. Additionally, avoid consuming yam, and wear gloves when peeling it.
