The pediatrician is faced with evaluating a panoply of skin rashes, a subset of which may be induced by food allergy. Acute urticaria is a common manifestation of an allergic skin response to food, but food is rarely a cause of chronic urticaria. Approximately one third of infants/children with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis have food allergy. Although diagnosis of acute urticaria provoked by a food may be evident from a straightforward history and confirmed by diagnostic tests to detect food-specific IgE antibody, determination of the role of food allergy in patients with atopic dermatitis is more difficult and may require additional diagnostic maneuvers, including elimination diets and oral food challenges. The immunopathologic basis of food-allergic disorders that affect the skin and a rational approach to diagnosis and treatment are discussed. Additional disorders that are caused by or mimic ones caused by food allergy are reviewed.

Food allergy is an important problem in the paediatric population. Food products that are most likely to induce allergic reactions include cow’s milk, wheat, peanuts, hen’s eggs, fish and seafood. Food-allergy-related diseases include, among other things, atopic dermatitis, urticaria and asthma. Anaphylactic shock is the most severe form of allergic reaction. Intramuscular adrenalin at a dose of 0.01 mg/kg body weight (maximum dose 0.3–0.5 mg) is the primary treatment for anaphylaxis. An elimination diet is the treatment of choice in food allergy. If symptoms persist despite dietary intervention, extended diagnosis using skin prick tests and/or specific IgE measurements should be performed. We present a clinical case of a 2.5-year-old boy with erythroderma secondary to atopic dermatitis, who was referred to our Department due to the lack of improvement after outpatient treatment. It was found during hospital stay that the symptoms were caused by potato allergens.
