Overview
The most common symptoms of allergic colitis is passage of blood streaked stool in an otherwise healthy young infant especially in FPIAP. History of failure to thrive may also be gotten in the infant with FPIES. There may be a family history of allergy.
History and Symptoms
Obtaining a detailed history is important in making diagnosis of allergic colitis. Complete history will help determine the cause and possible risk factors associated with the disease.
History
Specific history to ask include:
- When the symptoms started
- Type of food ingested
- Detailed description of the symptoms, such as stool pattern, number of times and presence or absence of blood in the stool; and vomiting
- Is the child thriving or ill looking
- Presence of abdominal pain
- Is there any family history of allergy
Type of Allergic colitis | History and Symptoms |
---|---|
Food protein-induced allergic proctocolitis[1][2][3][4] |
|
Food protein-induced enterocolitis syndrome[4] | Chronic
Typical presentation is that of chronic exposure to the trigger food with onset of symptoms developing insidiously in the first few weeks of life to as long as 1 year.
|
Acute
Symptoms occur following a period of avoidance of trigger food in a patient with a background history of chronic exposure. It may also follow intermittent exposures.
