Would It be bad if you put an egg white on your skin rash or allergy that's on your face and also caused you to have a lot of bumps?

Yes, but not really. Egg whites contain dense protein chains of which comprise about 15% of mass of egg white. The rest is mostly water. SO, some sort of protein based allergy is happening. Time for an allergy check up at the dr. Be sure to tell him/her about the egg white incident so as to narrow the causal agent.

What can you do for dust allergy?

Me, having dust allergies too have learned a great deal about this topic. A huge cause of dust allergies are dust mites, which hide in pillows, clothes, anywhere moist. You are not allergic to them , but their feces. You can control this by creating a dry enviornment, but if you are allergic to dust too, this won't help. Try getting special micro-fiber coverers for pillows and sheets to protect yourself from this. As far as dust itself goes, keep a clean house, expecially if you have carpeting (you might want to get rid of carpeting to control allergies even more) and consider using a air filter.



Air purifiers are also a good idea to rid the air of dust and other particles that may induce allergic reactions.

How do you fake anaphylaxis?

Oh my gosh! Why would you ever do that? First off, that is a serious and life threatening medical condition, and why anybody would want that is absolutely beyond my comprehension. Your entire face will swell, your appendages will severely tingle, hives will develop on your entire body, and your throat will close, not to mention the abdominal cramps, projectile vomiting, and diarrhea that goes along with it. If you fake it, and receive the treatment usually necessary if someone is having a real reaction, (epinephrine) you can risk heart failure, and death. It is basically a bunch of adrenaline, which will substantially increase your heart rate. Also, you will be hospitalized, at which point blood tests will be taken to determine that you have no allergy to whatever it was you were planing on faking a reaction to. PLEASE NEVER DO THAT EVER! I am a school nurse and if any of my students told me that they were experiencing anaphylaxis, they would get at least one Epi-pen, probably two, while waiting for the ambulance. Not exactly the condition to fake for sympathy if you ask me.

Is it possible for your daughter to be allergic to other dogs but not the one you have now?

Yes, the key is what kind of hair/fur your dog has, or in other words, what breed is your dog. If the dog is a poodle, schnauzer type that has hair, she would most likely not be allergic to it. She might be allergic to dogs that have fur, like black labs etc. The way to tell is if the dog has to get a haircut every 6 months or so, it is because the dog has hair and not fur. Fur falls out at the end of winter and the dog has a summer coat until winter when it gets thicker again. Dogs with hair do not go through that cycle.
