Anaphylactic Shock Sign #2: Lump in the Throat
Allergies can affect people in different ways. Most commonly they will cause itching or some other form or irritations. They can also form lumps to appear for no apparent reason, and in some unexpected places. Such lumps can also occur in the throat and they can be a problem if they are severe enough.
The throat is exposed to allergens as air passes over it all the time. The tissues of the throat are also soft and susceptible to anything that might irritate them. If a lump does form in the throat due to an allergy, then there is a chance that it could expand to the point where it makes it difficult for the patient to breathe.
