do allergies get passed down?

They can vary widely. Tendencies toward allergies can be passed down, but allergies can be different for parents and children. My brother-in-law had some common allergies, like to ragweed and pollen. My niece is fine for those, but is allergic to nuts, dairy and soap chemicals.

My parents had no allergies, but I have always reacted badly to dust, household cleaners, perfumes and room sprays - all those things actually burn my skin. Adults can also develop allergies. It is very common for allergies to pop up for people in their 40s and 50s.

I think so because I have really bad allergies just like my grandma.

No. food hypersensitive reactions are actually not many times surpassed down. even although, being the mummy of a youngster with extreme peanut hypersensitivity, i could fairly have the youngster examined till now attempting the nuts!

our doctor always told us they do. my mom had them and now I have them.

But they said some groups of ailments could be passed down. such as, my mom had eczema, the skin irritation ailment.

I didn't get that but I have asthma and our doctor says they're linked in same family of types of ailments.
