Allergy Care

Allergy symptoms arise when your immune system believes the body is under attack. The body treats a common material like a dangerous virus or bacteria and overreacts in an attempt to remove the usually harmless allergen from the system.

What Causes Allergies?

Common allergy triggers we see among our patients of all ages include:

Dust mites, pollen, and pets

Foods such as peanuts, tree nuts, dairy, and eggs

Venom from stinging insects

Medications, such as antibiotics like penicillin/amoxicillin

What Do Allergy Symptoms Look Like?

Allergy symptoms and reactions can range in appearance and severity. Keep your eye out for:

Excessive coughing
Excessive sneezing
Watery eyes
Fainting
Hives
Itchy skin
Runny nose
Stomach ache
Swelling of the skin, lips, eyes, or tongue
Tingling in or around the mouth
Vomiting
Diarrhea

How Can I Test for Allergies?

Allied Physicians Group Allergy practices offer comprehensive allergy testing to determine the allergens that affect you or your loved one. The most important part of the visit is the discussion with the clinician to determine what tests may be appropriate. Allergy testing is often ordered inappropriately by non-specialists and is difficult to interpret. Our highly trained allergists will obtain a comprehensive clinical history to help determine what, if any, testing might be necessary. Testing can include:

Blood testing is an alternative to skin testing and may be used to identify the reaction to allergens like:

Stinging insects
Dust mites
Foods
Latex
Medications
Mold
Pets
Pollen

We will draw blood samples to analyze the immunoglobulin E (IgE) levels in the blood. IgE are antibodies that appear as an allergy response to fight off allergens. Results will appear after a few days.

What Allergy Treatments Can I Expect?

Allergy treatments may include:

Allergy shots
Emergency medications, such as auto-injectable epinephrine
Eye drops
Early food introduction
Oral food challenges
Medication
Nasal sprays
Sinus rinses
Steroid free eczema treatments
Biologic immune-modulating medications
Food Desensitization/ Oral immunotherapy (OIT)- This procedure involves giving increasing doses of the food to which you or your child is allergic to achieve a state of immunologic tolerance (desensitization). The immune system is re-trained to handle and not react to food proteins/allergens through regular eating of small amounts of food. It should ALWAYS be supervised by board-certified allergists for safety. The current alternative that is the standard of care is strict avoidance of the food allergen.
