Common triggers
Contact with an allergen such as pollen, dust mites, pet fur, certain foods, medicines, stings or plants. New foods and surroundings on holiday can reveal allergies you never knew about.
Understanding allergy
Allergies occur when the body’s defences react strongly to a harmless substance like pollen, dust, food, a drug or a sting. Effects range from a runny nose and rash to, rarely, a life-threatening emergency.
Signs of allergy to look for
- Itchy, red or watery eyes
- Stomach upset after eating certain foods
- Swollen lips, face or eyelids
- Sneezing, runny or blocked nose
- Itchy skin, rash or hives
Torba: local notes for allergy
In Torba the typical health problems come from too much sun, too little water and food that has sat out in the heat. Close by are Konacik, Golturkbuku, Akyarlar, which share the same medical services. Sun cream, pool chemicals and new buffet foods are frequent triggers. Check ingredients, tell your hotel about any allergy and carry your medicine.
