Allergy Information:
Carrot allergy is generally associated with allergy to birch pollen or with the celery-carrot-mugwort-spice syndrome. Allergy to carrot seems rather less common than the related allergy to celery. The most common symptom of carrot allergy seems to be the oral allergy syndrome as is often seen with other birch pollen related allergies. However, as for celery, severe symptoms have been reported for carrot allergy.
