My son got a rash after trying tofu, could it be an allergic reaction? Should I stop giving it to him?

Hi, my 6 month old son has been eating (DME) for 3 weeks. Today is the 3rd day of integrating tofu (soy). After the meal, he started to have a little bit of pimples on his face and stomach.

Hello, Madam,
Did the pimples on the face and stomach appear at the same time?
Was there any other food?
30-year-old woman · 2 years ago
Yes it appeared at the same time.
yes he had eggs too but he has been eating them for longer and he didn't get any pimples.

Thanks for the feedback!
When an allergy is suspected, it is usually recommended to avoid the suspected food until the appointment with the doctor. If deemed necessary, a consultation with an allergist will be done to confirm the allergy or not. Allergies are quite rare, but it is always a precaution.
Sincerely,
Tom Samaha, pharmacist
