A reaction can occur after an allergen is ingested, inhaled, injected, or even touched. The reaction may include coughing, sneezing, hives, or an itchy, runny nose and eyes (known as allergic rhinitis). In severe reactions, known as anaphylaxis, a person can develop low blood pressure, difficulty breathing, skin rash, or shock. If not treated immediately, it could even result in death.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"how-common-are-allergies\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How common are allergies?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Allergies are very common.
