Management and Treatment of Exercise-Induced Anaphylaxis
Exercise-induced anaphylaxis is a severe allergic reaction triggered by physical activity, often in people with specific food allergies. Management includes avoiding known triggers, like certain foods before exercising. If symptoms like hives, difficulty breathing, or swelling occur during exercise, stop immediately and seek help. Carry an epinephrine auto-injector for emergencies; it can quickly counteract severe reactions. After an episode, consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation and a personalized action plan to ensure safe exercise and avoid future incidents. Education about the condition is essential for both the individual and those around them.
