Yes, you can certainly suddenly develop an allergy to a food (or other substance) with which you have had no previous problem.

Pain in the stomach after eating eggs is most likely the result of an egg allergy and will often be accompanied by other symptoms such as skin rashes, nasal congestion, or asthma (wheezing, shortness of breath, coughing). Hives (extremely itchy welts on the skin) are especially common.

My immediate concern for you, and what I emphasize in my response here, is that an egg allergy can cause anaphylaxis (a severe and serious allergic reaction which is rapid in onset and may cause death). If you experience lightheadedness, difficulty breathing, or if your throat begins to swell, CALL 911 (in U.S.; if you are outside of U.S. then call IMMEDIATELY for an emergency ambulance), as [u]these symptoms can progress to LIFE-THREATENING within a matter of seconds or within just a few minutes[/u]!!!

I hope that this info has been helpful to you. I do not wish to alarm you, but you MUST take this matter most seriously!!!

Wishing you well,
Dianne (a longtime and very seasoned Critical Care registered nurse)

Yes, you may only have the trapped gas [u]this[/u] particular time, but as I said, next time you may not be so lucky.

I would thoroughly and strongly urge you to consult a physician as soon as possible, and he or she may want to test you for an egg allergy. You would have peace of mind knowing for sure, your life would be a lot simpler if you did not have to avoid everything containing eggs, and consider this: the small inconvenience to you now may save your life later.

Be smart and well.☺️
@Stormkitten Yes, true, thank you. Will take your advice at heart

Your gut flora can change, or you could have an intestinal issue. That doesn't sound like allergies to me. If it persists you might want to see a doc.

You can develop an intolerance at any time. I became intolerant to caffeine ☹️ 2 years ago!
