Individuals with a mustard allergy may encounter issues like abdominal discomfort, lip swelling, nausea, or skin rashes when they unintentionally consume a product that includes mustard.

Egg allergy reactions, which typically occur within minutes after eating egg, can vary from mild to serious.

They may involve skin responses such as hives and edema, gastrointestinal difficulties like nausea and bowel movements, and breathing challenges including wheezing and difficulty in breathing.

A skin rash near the mouth is a typical initial symptom in babies, and eczema may also be aggravated by contact with eggs.

In extreme cases, allergies to mustard and eggs may lead to anaphylaxis—a serious, potentially fatal reaction where throat swelling can obstruct breathing.

The best course of action is an adrenaline injection, and individuals with serious allergies are advised to have an auto-injector, like an EpiPen, on hand.

Individuals suffering from anaphylaxis must promptly obtain urgent medical assistance, regardless of whether their symptoms appear to subside following the injection.
