Frequently Asked Questions
about Allergic Reactions
We’re here to make your visit as easy as possible.
Below are answers to common questions about allergic reactions.
What is considered a allergic reaction?
A allergic reaction may cause localized itching, redness, a mild rash, or a small area of swelling without affecting breathing or other body systems. Even mild symptoms should be monitored because allergic reactions can sometimes become more severe.
Can Lansing Urgent Care treat allergic reactions?
Yes. Lansing Urgent Care evaluates and treats many mild allergic reactions, including localized skin irritation, itching, hives, and reactions to insect bites or environmental allergens.
What are the most common symptoms of an allergic reaction?
Common symptoms include itching, redness, hives, skin irritation, sneezing, watery eyes, and localized swelling. More serious symptoms, such as difficulty breathing, throat tightness, or fainting, require emergency care.
What causes sudden allergic reactions?
Allergic reactions may be triggered by foods, medications, insect stings, pollen, pet dander, latex, cosmetics, or household products. Sometimes the exact trigger is not immediately clear.
How long does a allergic reaction last?
Mild allergic reactions may improve within a few hours, although some symptoms can last several days. The duration depends on the allergen, severity of the reaction, and treatment received.
Can Lansing Urgent Care prescribe medication for an allergic reaction?
Yes. Depending on your symptoms, our providers may recommend or prescribe antihistamines, topical treatments, or corticosteroids when medically appropriate to help relieve itching, redness, and inflammation.
Can Lansing Urgent Care treat hives and itchy skin?
Yes. Our providers can evaluate hives, also called urticaria, and recommend treatment to reduce itching and discomfort while helping identify possible triggers.
What should I do if I have a mild allergic reaction?
Stop using or avoid the suspected allergen when possible. A cool compress may help relieve localized itching or swelling. An appropriate antihistamine may also help, but seek medical advice if symptoms persist, spread, or worsen.
Can a allergic reaction become serious?
Yes. Some allergic reactions can progress rapidly to anaphylaxis, a potentially life threatening condition. Symptoms such as difficulty breathing, throat or tongue swelling, dizziness, or fainting require immediate emergency treatment.
When should I go to Lansing Urgent Care versus the emergency room for an allergic reaction?
Urgent care is appropriate for mild symptoms such as localized itching, limited hives, or skin irritation without signs of a severe reaction. Call 911 for breathing difficulty, throat or tongue swelling, fainting, or symptoms affecting multiple body systems after a possible allergen exposure. If you have a prescribed epinephrine auto injector for a suspected severe reaction, use it immediately as directed.
