There are some people who are allergic to aspirin. Aspirin allergy symptoms differ from individual to individual depending upon the level of sensitivity to aspirin. Generally most people suffer from mild to moderate aspirin allergy symptoms which, though cause discomforts, but they do not result in very serious damages. However there are some people who are very sensitive to aspirin and they may experience severe and even life threatening symptoms when aspirin enters their body.

People with asthma and sinus problems are at greater risk of developing aspirin allergy symptoms. The symptoms generally appear within hours after having an aspirin tablet. The symptoms may vanish in a single day or may also persist for a few days.

So common symptoms associated with aspirin allergy are:

• Hives in both children as well as in adults
• Eczema
• Itchy and runny nose
• Stuffy ears
• Nasal congestion
• Allergic shiners
• Redness of eyes
• Coughing

Sometimes aspirin allergy symptoms may take a more serious form and can lead to a life threatening condition like Anaphylaxis also resulting in symptoms like:

• Chest pain with a feeling tightness around the chest
• Rapid pulse
• Excessive Wheezing
• Difficulty in breathing
• Sudden drop in blood pressure
• Severe hives all around the body
• Swelling of mouth face and other airways to the lungs

Aspirin allergy symptoms if coming in the form of some of the above mentioned symptoms should be treated immediately by a doctor. Otherwise they can lead to the death of the patient also.
