Allergies are triggered when your child ingests histamine. Histamines are normally considered to be harmless in the human body, however, when a person is allergic to it, the white blood cells or the immune systems overreacts and attacks the histamine.

This also triggers the body to experience sneezing, runny nose, and swelling in different parts of the body. This is considered to be your body's self defense when they encounter an alien object in your body.
