Peanut Allergies Prevention Peanut allergies cannot be prevented, but they can be helped or treated. They can never be 100% cured though.
* Rashes (hives,redness,swelling) * Itchy or tingly feeling in/around the mouth and throat *Diarrhea, stomach cramps, nausea, vomiting, or other digestive problems * Chest Tightening * Wheezing/Shortness of Breath * Runny or stuffy nose * Anaphylaxis- could include facial swelling, breathing difficulty, weakness, blood pressure suddenly droping /collapse. It is important to understand either anaphylaxis can be shown by a collapse or sudden drowsiness not only by a rash or breathing difficulty.
