About Melons Allergy Test | Cantaloupe, Honeydew in Poway
Melon allergy is an immune response to proteins found in the flesh of melons, including cantaloupe, honeydew, Crenshaw and muskmelons.
The test detects IgE antibodies that bind to melon proteins. IgE is the class of antibody associated with immediate allergic reactions, and its presence in blood can indicate sensitization to a specific allergen.
Symptoms of melon allergy may include itching or tingling in the mouth, hives, swelling of the lips or throat, and in more severe cases, difficulty breathing or a drop in blood pressure. Reactions can vary depending on the individual and the amount consumed.
Some people with melon allergy also react to other fruits or to pollen because of similar proteins, a pattern sometimes called cross-reactivity. A test result is interpreted together with a person's history and other findings, not on its own.
