Dear lybrate-user, kindly confirm your allergy by doing allergy test by skin prick, blood test for food specific ige antibodies/immunocap {quantitative}. Food challenge under supervision of your allegy doctor to prove your allergy to eggs. You mentioned itching -at joint flexures whic can be due to fungal infection on your skin apart from skin allergy. Hence fungal scrapping and study for fungal hypahae may be helpful followed by topical antifungal creams. Scabies infestation should also be considered. And treated appropriately. Thankyou.
