Allergy Testing and Treatment

Allergies are a common health problem, particularly in children. Allergy testing is a diagnostic tool used to identify specific allergens that trigger allergic reactions. Various types of allergy tests are available, including skin prick tests, blood tests, and patch tests. Allergy treatment aims to reduce the severity of allergic symptoms and prevent future allergic reactions. Medication, immunotherapy, and lifestyle changes including avoiding allergens are all possible treatment options. The quality of life for children with allergies can be improved, and consequences can be avoided, with early diagnosis and treatment.
