The child's mouth turned red after eating raw tomatoes

If a child's mouth turns red after eating raw tomatoes, it may be because the child is allergic to tomatoes, or it may be caused by the dilation of capillaries in the mouth.

1. Allergy cause: If a child’s mouth and face turn red after eating tomatoes, it may be caused by an allergy to tomatoes. When you are allergic to tomatoes, the fruit juice inside will flow out when you eat tomatoes, causing local skin irritation and allergic symptoms. After the allergy occurs, the skin in the mouth area will become red, accompanied by itching symptoms. After an allergy occurs, it is necessary to promptly treat it under the guidance of a doctor by taking oral loratadine, which will help the recovery of allergic symptoms.

2. Capillary dilation: Children’s skin is relatively delicate. When stimulated by tomato juice, the capillaries in the mouth area will dilate, causing redness of the mouth and face. When the skin becomes red, you need to wash it off with tomato juice in time to relieve the symptoms.

When taking anti-allergic drugs, you need to pay attention to your diet and try to choose light foods. You can eat more fruits and vegetables rich in vitamins and maintain a balanced nutrition. Foods rich in vitamins can enhance the body's immunity, but you also need to stay away from allergens.
