A member asked:
What kind of testing does an allergist do in the office; what can he learn?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Lots: Allergists routinely test to inhalant allergens (pollen, animals dust mites, molds), foods, stinging insects, and some drugs, such as penicillin. Whether a person needs such tests depends on a thorough medical history. Proper testing greatly aids in the management of allergic diseases.
