Preventing Childhood Allergies

Have you ever felt that itch on your neck or burn on your lip that may come as a surprise when indulging in a delicious butter-prawn - a feeling that was never there before? That could be due to an allergic reaction that only recently exhibited itself in adulthood. Many allergic conditions remain dormant until it can potentially be too late - fortunately, Dr. Amir Hamzah Abdul Latiff, President of the Malaysian Society of Allery & Immunology (MSAI), joins us to share ways to tackle these allergies in childhood, before they have a chance to pose a danger.
