What Are You Allergic To?
Three out of four random people responded to this questions with a silly answer — so we thought, but…
It’s fully possible for someone to be allergic to water. According to the Allergy & Asthma Network, “It may seem like a strange question, but the answer is ‘yes.’ There is a very rare condition known as aquagenic urticaria (AU) where skin contact with water causes itchy, red hives or swelling. In severe cases, it can cause wheezing or shortness of breath.”
