Rice husk allergies may not be common, but they can be severe. If you suspect that you have an allergy to rice husk, it is important to speak with a healthcare professional for proper diagnosis and treatment.
Rice husk, also known as rice hull, is the outer layer of a rice grain that is removed during processing and is commonly used for fuel, animal feed and insulation. Symptoms of a rice husk allergy include skin rash, hives, itching, and difficulty breathing.
When handling silkie eggs that come packaged with rice husk, customers should take precautions to avoid an allergic reaction. Wearing a mask can help protect against allergens and other precautions include washing hands and cooking surfaces thoroughly before and after handling the eggs, and keeping the eggs away from other foods that you may be allergic to.
