Food allergies can start anytime in life with no warning, although peanut allergies usually develop at an early age. A peanut allergy can be one of the most severe allergies, with some people reacting to even tiny amounts of the nut. Symptoms can range from mild to severe and can start within a few minutes after eating peanuts. Symptoms usually include a stomachache, itchy eyes, a runny nose, hives, or tingling of the mouth, lips, and tongue. Severe symptoms including swelling and tightening of the throat, wheezing, shortness of breath, dizziness, lightheadedness, a severe drop in blood pressure, and difficulty breathing.
Anyone experiencing these symptoms should see a doctor as soon as possible, even if symptoms are mild, because there may be a risk of a more serious reaction in the future.
