Advanced Allergy Diagnostic Tests
At The ENT Care & General Hospital, we offer advanced allergy testing methods to accurately identify the substances responsible for allergic reactions. These tests help us create precise and personalized treatment plans.
1. Skin Prick Test
The skin prick test is one of the most reliable methods for identifying common allergens such as dust mites, pollen, molds, pet dander, and certain foods. A small amount of allergen extract is placed on the skin, and the skin is gently pricked. A reaction such as redness or swelling indicates sensitivity.
Purpose: To identify specific allergens causing allergic reactions.
Uses: Commonly used to diagnose allergic rhinitis, asthma triggers, food allergies, and skin allergies.
2. Intradermal Allergy Test
In this test, a small quantity of allergen is injected just beneath the skin. It is more sensitive than the skin prick test and is used when initial tests are inconclusive.
Purpose: To detect low-level or hidden allergic sensitivities.
Uses: Helpful in diagnosing drug allergies, insect sting allergies, and chronic respiratory allergies.
3. Blood Tests for Allergy (IgE Testing)
This blood test measures the level of Immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies produced in response to allergens. It is ideal for patients who cannot undergo skin testing due to skin conditions or medication use.
Purpose: To measure allergic antibody response in the blood.
Uses: Used to diagnose food allergies, respiratory allergies, and severe allergic conditions.
4. Nasal Smear & Eosinophil Count
This test examines nasal secretions or blood samples to detect eosinophils, a type of white blood cell associated with allergic reactions.
Purpose: To confirm allergic inflammation.
Uses: Helpful in diagnosing allergic rhinitis and differentiating allergies from infections.
