Allergy Treatment
Allergy treatment
Allergy sufferers should be seen by an allergist or an ENT (ear, nose, throat) specialist. The physician or specialist will ask questions related to the patient’s medical history and in all likelyhood perform a series of medical tests and examinations. One common test and likely the first is the “skin test,” done by scratching or lightly injecting a small amount of allergen into the surface of the patient’s skin. Then having the patient wait for about 20 minutes to see what the reaction is to the various allergens introduced. If a large hive develops, it usually means the patient is “sensitive” (allergic) to that allergen. Skin tests help to determine the patient’s sensitivity to each allergen. This makes it easier for the physician to formulate a plan to alleviate the symptoms caused by the allergens.
