Can anybody be allergic to hibiscus?

I have a rash that won't go away. And I think it's from the hibiscus?

Can anybody be allergic to hibiscus?
yes -- you can develop allergies to just about anything.





go see your doctor and tell him your concerns. he can do a skin test that will reveal any allergies you may have.
Reply:Well it's a flower and yes plenty of people are allergic to flower pollen ... it can cause rashes and being stuffed up (hay fever, I get it from something as simple as fresh cut grass). So yea, you could have had an allergic reaction. If it doesn't get better see a doctor but try Gold Bond or Cortizone 10 to calm your skin. No scratching, it will make it worse, try some Benadryl for a fast fix and a cream (like the two meantioned above) to sooth your skin. Hope I helped!





-Skin tests can be expensive and painful if you don't like being poked ... I wouldn't do that unless you find that a lot of things are causing reactions.
Reply:Yes a person can become allergic to anything. Also allergies can happen at anytime in ones life. I used to have cats but developed an allergy to them. No more cats. Fish make nice pets. Unfortunately I do not think allergies can be out grown. Just managed. If the doctor confirms an allergy to hibiscus try growing roses. Good Luck.
Reply:Anybody can be allergic to any thingbut i would seek some medical advice as you dont want the rash to get any worse.
Reply:You need to take Benadryl first, forget the creams for the time being, if their is even chance that you are having an allergic reaction, Benadryl will work throughout you're entire body, instead of just a particular spot (which creams only do), you should also make an appointment with you're doctor to be checked out. If you notice any other symptoms that arise, go to the emergency room immediately.
