My 9 month old baby is here and this is the second day in a row that I have eaten salmon... since yesterday I have seen red patches appearing on my chest and neck... is it an allergy?

Hello Mrs.,
Unfortunately it is quite difficult to establish an exact cause, would it be possible to send a well-lit picture?
Have you tried anything for this problem?
Thank you for your help!

Thanks for the feedback.
It's hard to tell if this is an allergy, but it can't be ruled out. That being said, applying a fragrance-free moisturizer like Aveeno or Base Glaxal, as often as needed, might help. Use a fragrance-free soap like Dove, and
avoid rubbing the skin, (instead, lightly pat it down), and avoid wiping too often if there is saliva.
If you want to give him salmon or other seafood next time, go with a tiny amount to evaluate afterwards.
If you notice that the redness increases or does not go away after a few days, you should consult a doctor as a precaution.
I will remain available if you have any further questions
