Description

<p>It is not uncommon for otolaryngologists to encounter laryngeal edema due to infection in routine practice. However, we rarely encounter laryngeal edema caused by allergic reactions to orally ingested food.</p><p>We herein report two cases of oral allergy syndrome after consumption of manuka honey candy. Both cases developed laryngeal edema and subsequent steroid administration led to the prompt improvement of symptoms. A basophil activation test for manuka honey candy was negative in both cases.</p>
