What is a swine allergy?

A swine allergy occurs when the immune system perceives animal proteins as a threat, leading to an abnormal immune response. This allergy is triggered by contact with the animal or its secretions (hair, saliva, or skin flakes) and can cause severe reactions in sensitive individuals.

Common symptoms of swine allergy

Contact with pigs can trigger various symptoms in allergic individuals, such as:

• Skin rash and itching
• Swelling of the eyes or lips
• Sneezing and runny nose
• Difficulty breathing or coughing
• Asthma attacks in individuals with respiratory conditions

Symptoms often worsen in people with prolonged exposure to pigs, such as farmers and workers in the pig farming industry.
