Egg allergy

Egg allergy

An egg allergy is a common type of food allergy. Your immune system overreacts to proteins in eggs. Hen (chicken) eggs are the most common cause of an egg allergy. However, other animal eggs, including duck, turkey or quail, may cause your immune system to overreact. An egg allergy can be fatal. If you have severe allergic reaction symptoms, such as swelling in your throat, call 911 (or your local emergency number), or go to the emergency room (ER) immediately.
