FInally remembered these 3 conditions, i hope there's nothing wrong! ><

Substances that can trigger allergy are food, chemicals, drugs or pollen.
Recognition-- Red itchy rash, or raised areas of the skin
-- Wheezing or difficulty breathing

Fever above 40 degrees celsius is dangerous and the casualty have to be sent to the hospital immediately.
