You should see a doctor if you have a problems and definitely watch carefully what you eat especially reading food labels to avoid eating foods causing your problems.
There are no cure for food allergies. You can be tested by taking a skin prick test at the doctors office. It is inexpensive and often times the best way to find out what you are allergic to.

Its not something that you do, its something that is an effect of eating food. People undergo an allergic reaction to particular types of foods like peanuts, wheat, soy, milk and egg.
Typical allergic reactions are in the form of a skin rash, eye itchiness or sneezing/runny nose. You might also have diarrhea or stomach pains. If you are not careful, food allergies can lead to death so if you feel really sick call 911 and/or see a doctor if you start wheezing or have problems in the throat.
You can't do anything about the food allergy other than avoiding it completely. Young children will often times get food allergies but outgrow as they get older.
