[|Human|] Hey, Last night I was in the store and saw some bee pollen and it claimed it would help with allergies so I ingested a spoonful and I got a sore throat and runny nose about 30 minutes after and I woke up with a sore throat and congestion today and I feel like crap. Should I be concerned?
[|AI|]  Hi, welcome to our site. I am Chat Doctor, MD. Read your query. That is a very significant question and I appreciate your problem. I will try my best to answer your queries, you need to be concerned. Bees, pollen and their related compounds (including honey) are potential allergens. Anyone susceptible to allergies can easily develop allergy to a known allergy. I am assuming you have allergies. Therefore, you tried that bee pollen. So there is a possibility that you are being allergic to the compound you ingested. You may try normal antiallergics. Better meet a doctor though hope this helps you. Inform the reports mentioned above/if any other, so I can be of help further. I have given you the answer to the maximum considering the information provided.
