Allergy Testing
Allergy testing is a medical procedure used to identify substances (called allergens) that trigger an allergic reaction in a person. Allergens can be found in food, pollen, dust, animal dander, insect stings, medications, and more. The test helps diagnose allergies and guides treatment decisions to help manage symptoms or avoid exposure.
Why Is It Important?
Allergy symptoms—such as sneezing, itching, rashes, swelling, or even difficulty breathing—can significantly affect your quality of life. Testing can:
- Identify the specific allergens causing your symptoms
- Help you avoid triggers
- Guide personalized treatment plans, including medications or immunotherapy
- Reduce the risk of severe allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis
