Hello, I ate a mango and a few hours later my ears were burning, my wrists were itching and my stomach hurt a lot. Is this an allergy? Should I be worried?

Doctor's Response: It sounds like you may have had an allergic reaction to mango. Allergic reactions to mango are rare, but the symptoms you experienced are consistent with an allergic reaction. I recommend that you take an allergy test to confirm if you are indeed allergic to mango. In the meantime, it is best to avoid eating mango and other related fruits such as kiwi. If you experience any further reactions, please seek medical attention.
