Resolved Question: I have just had an allergic reaction to a Banana…..?

Been eating bananas for years, one a night and all of a sudden last night my mouth lining swelled up and my ‘lip’ just in side my mouth also. it is still quite inflamed and sore….to be fair I have just had new dentures about three weeks ago and seriously thought it was those but now I am sure it was the banana

It is not an anaphilais attack.

MY question is why do things like this suddenly happen after years of exposure?

Why does a simple thing like a banana suddenly become an enemy?

anyone out there with an interest in immunology explain this?

I am 66 and do have autoimmune diseases and OK I do have some allergies already, but why do things suddenly become like this?

Please answer I am baffled. G
