People who have severe cases may need to avoid exercise all together. Other people may be able to exercise if they avoid triggers. These can include certain types of exercise or foods. Keep track of what you eat before you exercise. If you notice a pattern to your symptoms, stop eating that food. If hives and symptoms also stop, tell your doctor. They probably will tell you to avoid the food. The doctor may tell you not to exercise for 4 to 6 hours after you eat.

Most symptoms can be controlled with medicine(s) prescribed by your doctor. Take these according to your doctor’s orders. Pay close attention to your body and reactions. Slow down or stop exercising as soon as symptoms start. Exercise with a partner who knows about your condition. If you have a history of severe symptoms, carry your EpiPen with you in case of emergency.
