The exocarp of fresh ginkgo fruit contains a lot of ginkgolic acid, which can easily cause allergies. When peeling the exocarp, citric acid will invade the skin, causing skin redness, itching and rash, which will lead to irritating dermatitis, allergic dermatitis and even anaphylactic shock.

Therefore, don't scratch other parts of the human body with your hands that have touched ginkgo nuts. Once allergic symptoms appear, wash them with cold water immediately and come to the hospital outpatient clinic as soon as possible.

Children should not eat ginkgo biloba: children are prone to poisoning when eating ginkgo biloba, and the younger they are, the more serious the poisoning is. Ginkgo biloba is not suitable for children under 2 years old, and the poisoning dose is 5 ~ 50. The poisoning occurred within 1 ~ 12 hours after eating ginkgo.
