When will there be a peanut allergy cure?

Do i have a peanut allergy?

• I'm allergic to a host of things from antiobiotics to cats but I don't have any food allergies that I know of. I never really eat peanuts or anything with peanuts in it but I bought some peanut butter to see if my son would like it. As I was spreading the chunky peanut butter on his toast a huge glob fell on my hand. I didn't wash it off just yet because my son was hungry and I had to put him in his high chair, feed him etc. I then began to notice my hand started to burn and itch where the big peanut butter glob was. I wiped it off to reveal a huge hive. I washed my hands thoroughly and took some benedryl and it subsided. I was wondering if this sounds like a mild peanut allergy? Can u get a hive just from touching peanut butter? I know when I was younger my dr thought I had a food allergy but my parents wouldn't fallow the brandt diet and didn't keep a journal of what I ate and I was much too young to do it myself. The food allergy symptoms subsided because I decided to eat more plain foods on my own like rice crispies for breakfast etc. P.s sorry for the poor grammer, I'm using a mobile
