About Pumpkin Allergy Test | Squash Allergies in Florida
Pumpkin allergy is uncommon but well documented, and it can appear as a food allergy or as a contact reaction.
Pumpkin is a member of the Cucurbitaceae family, commonly called the gourd or squash family. People who react to pumpkin sometimes also react to related foods such as zucchini, acorn squash, and melon, though cross-reactivity is not guaranteed.
Symptoms of a pumpkin allergy can include itching or tingling in the mouth, hives, swelling of the lips or tongue, stomach upset, and in rare cases more severe reactions. Handling or cutting raw pumpkin may also cause skin irritation or contact dermatitis in sensitized individuals.
An IgE blood test detects antibodies that bind to pumpkin proteins. A positive result indicates sensitization and should be interpreted alongside a person's medical history and reported symptoms; a negative result does not entirely rule out a non-IgE-mediated reaction.
