What Causes Rashes On The Body After Consuming Milk Products?

So about 3 months ago I was at a rally for my school and I got overheated and fell out so I went to the hospital and a few days later hives started popping up on my legs, back, arms, and around my neck. When they popped up they would sting and I would itch them until until they stopped stingy/itching but they would never go away right then and there. Then more would start popping up. I also noticed after I eat certain things that contain milk like ice cream and cheese they will pop up in the next 15 minutes.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.



I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.




Looks like you could have lactose intolerance and thus you are getting allergic reactions to milk and milk products. Therefore you must avoid all milk products and milk. If at all unknowingly you happen to ingest some milk product or any dairy item and if the rash comes up, you can take an anti allergic medication twice a day for few days or until the rash subsides.




Hope I have answered your query.



Let me know if I can assist you further.
