Can be dangerous if inhaled or absorbed through the skin?

Yes. If you are allergic to something, it is best to stay away from it completely. Depending on the severity of the allergy, some people will break out or have an allergic reaction just because they are near the thing they are allergic to. Others only have an allergic reaction if they eat the item they are allergic to. Make sure to ask your doctor about the severity of your allergy before you go near anything you are allergic to!

Can someone with a shellfish allergy have a thyroid scan?

The reason why shellfish allergy is asked is because of the link between shellfish allergy and iodine allergy (shellfish are rich in iodine). That does not mean that if your allergic to shellfish then you are allergic to iodine - you may be allergic to another component that is in the shellfish. Iodine is used in the thyroid scan as a dye and is injected into your veins. If you are allergic then the reaction would be quite quick and potentially serious. Asking about a shellfish allergy is to try to risk stratify those that may be more susceptible for a reaction and "prepare" the technician / radiologist for the worse case scenario. The main allergic reaction we would be worried about would be true anaphylaxis (if you've not heard of this then you probably not had it). Rashes and facial swelling would indicate a allergic reaction. Sickness, diarrhea and feeling "off" would suggest an intolerance rather than a true allergic reaction. Happy New Year! El Tango

What if your skin is allergic to avocados can you still eat avocados?

No, i wouldn't advise it. You can eat it, but because your skin is allergic, with it being the largest organ on the human body, it is hard to consume something without, actually making contact with, it unless, you use tools like a knife and fork. You would'nt probably come out in some sort of rash.

Can you be allergic to spandex?

yes! some people are only allergic to rubber (elastic, latex, spandex) which has been bleached or treated with rubber accelerators. Other people are allergic to latex, spandex, tires, pencil erasers, tennis balls, condoms, hairbrushes. They put rubber everywhere! Take it from me, I have a TRUE latex allergy. with a true latex allergy, an exposure leads to at least three weeks of contact dermatitis. For someone with this allergy, that includes spandex in jeans (which is bad because it is treated with lots of the rubber accelerator which is sometimes the real allergy)
