A member asked:
Do dust mites vary from one country to another?.was diagnosed with dust mite allergy in canada via skin prick test.do i need to repeat test in india?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Wouldn't bother : Dust mites are human pests & dust mite allergy is based on their dead bodies, created by living on shed human skin cells. I know of no data comparing the DNA of Canadian vs Indian mites but find it unlikely to matter. Assume you will have inhalant allergies including dust mites anywhere you go and take whatever precautions or treatments you find useful.
