Allergy Testing Services for Weymouth Residents

Allergy testing rules out other medical conditions that may have similar symptoms.

Our allergy testing services for Weymouth residents include:

• Patch testing diagnoses eczematous conditions or contact dermatitis. An allergist applies patches on the skin and removes them after 48 hours. Reading continues on the patch testing area after 72-96 hours.
• Skin prick testing injects small amounts of natural allergens. If a mark appears looking like a mosquito bite, you test positive for an allergy. Results come back within a day. You may feel minor discomfort, but the test is not painful.
• Blood tests take approximately one week to get results.
• Seasonal allergy testing relates to pollen, grasses, trees, and weeds.
• Environmental allergy testing looks for irritants. Some include pets, dust, mold, bee stings, and insect bites.
• Food allergy testing helps the immunologist understand symptoms.
• Drug allergy testing detects antibiotics, aspirin, penicillin, and anti-convulsant medications. Other allergies include monoclonal antibodies and chemo.

Immunologist and Allergy Shots for Weymouth

Allergy shots provide long-term relief, symptom reduction, and minimize attacks. Our allergist and immunologist may recommend injections as treatment. If you suffer from environmental or seasonal allergies, shots may help. Children can receive allergy shots, which may prevent pediatric asthma. This form of immunotherapy needs routine administration, which our doctor will determine. Allergy shots also help with sinus problems, including infections and chronic sinusitis. Our immunologist also gives flu vaccines. If you need allergist and immunologist services in Weymouth, contact us. Vallen Allergy and Asthma Center is located in Quincy and accepts new patients.

Asthma Diagnosis and Treatment Weymouth

Asthma is a chronic respiratory illness that, unfortunately, has no cure. However, with the proper diagnosis and treatment, your life will improve. Our asthma doctor helps adult and pediatric patients breathe better. Treatment includes medication and avoiding asthmatic attack triggers. We may perform allergy testing to determine what causes an attack. To diagnose asthma, we perform a breathing test or spirometry on patients six and older. Monitoring asthma requires annual testing. We examine younger children, and our asthma doctor routinely monitors them. Allergens, respiratory infections, physical activity, and cold Massachusetts air can cause asthma.

Food Allergy Testing Weymouth MA

Food allergy testing helps diagnose by ruling out other conditions. Allergic reactions can be life-threatening, with severe breathing trouble. Food allergy testing determines a treatment plan because there is no cure. Therapy may include an epi-pen (epinephrine autoinjector), avoidance, and wearing a medic alert ID. Food allergies vary and cause different reactions. Issues can affect digestion, skin, muscles, eyes, nose, and nerves. Our allergist will diagnose through blood or skin testing. We test children, including infants, for food allergies. Our allergists test dairy, seafood, nuts, seeds, soy, and wheat.
