17 months old sudden milk allergy?

Question

Can my toddler become allergic to milk suddenly? He was fine till yesterday drinking milk everyday no rash no eczema . He was seen since last 4 days and how he had hives in cheeks 1st time after drinking milk but it was not itchy went away fast. 2nd time 2 3 hrs after drinking milk those were itchy so applied  Benadryl gel and it went away. Can he be allergic to milk or antibiotics reaction or viral rash?

Answer

It's not impossible but if hes never had an issue before I would start looking at other new introductions first.

Answer

While not impossible, this doesn’t sound like a milk allergy.
If I saw your other post, looks and sounds more like a reaction to the antibiotics. It can take up to 3 days for a reaction to antibiotics to happen.

Answer

We didn't know our oldest was allergic to milk until around 17 months as well. All of her massive spit up problems? Milk allergy. I was dismissed when I asked the doctor so we continued on with dairy based formula. He struggled with weight gain because she vomitted up half of her bottles every day. When she changed to whole milk she was miserable, so we did lactose free. It worked for a while then she would commit every day. I stopped giving dairy and it stopped. She's 2 and had an allergy test. She's allergic to milk and eggs, but doesn't break out in hives with milk.

Answer

Ask toddlers pediatrician.
