Allergology

Live better, live longer

Allergic diseases in most cases begin to appear in childhood, as it was then formed by the immune system responsible for the body’s reaction to allergens.

Symptoms:

The most common symptoms of allergies are: lacrimation, rhinorrhea (runny nose), sneezing, coughing, as well as the appearance of skin reactions: redness, itching, spots, swelling.

Major diseases in allergy:

  • Allergic rhinitis – an inflammation of the nasal mucosa, induced by a non-infectious factors.
  • Bronchial asthma – a non-infectious inflammation of the bronchial tubes, and at the level of the lungs that develops in response to the body contact with the allergen.
  • Seasonal hay fever – Seasonal allergic reaction to the pollen of flowering plants.
  • Atopic dermatitis – this is one of the most common diseases of allergic nature, manifested in severe, affecting the skin. The disease is dermatitis caused by genetics and, unfortunately, is chronic.
  • Angioedema – this is the most serious disease, which can lead to death.

Treatment and prevention:

The allergology specialist first conducts allergy tests to determine the cause of the disease. In addition to drugs that reduce the body’s sensitivity to an allergen, can be carried allergen-specific immunotherapy. But the most important in the prevention of allergic reactions of the body is the avoidance of contact with the allergen.

Programs

1. Taking a patient history

Review
Analysis of the factors that provoked the disease, environmental factors and climatic factors
Exposure to pets and aggravating occupational factors
Impact of stress
Examination of previous treatment

2. Skin test for respiratory allergens by prick test
A skin test is performed on the forearm, using respiratory allergens and those most commonly found in the environment. The allergen solution is applied to the hand, then a micro-puncture is made using a special lancet to penetrate the drug into the dermal layer of the skin. The test result is ready in 15-20 minutes after the test.

3. Measurement of exhaled nitric oxide FENO (NO Aerocrine)
Examination of the respiratory tract, which determines the intensity of the allergic disease and select appropriate treatment methods. The result is expressed in parts per million and provides a very accurate assessment of allergic inflammation.

4. Laboratory tests (if necessary)
Blood analysis. Determination of common allergic immunoglobulins E (IgE). Determination of specific immunoglobulin E (IgEs) based on the patient’s medical history and skin tests. Respiratory and food fadiatope (IgE specific (3-5). Blood composition with the distribution of leukocytes and determination of the proportion of eosinophils.

5. Medical opinion

2. Skin test for respiratory allergens by prick test
A skin test is performed on the forearm, using respiratory allergens and those most commonly found in the environment. The allergen solution is applied to the hand, then a micro-puncture is made using a special lancet to penetrate the drug into the dermal layer of the skin. The test result is ready in 15-20 minutes after the test.

3. Measurement of fractions of exhaled nitric oxide
Examination of the respiratory tract, which determines the intensity of the allergic disease and select appropriate treatment methods. The result is expressed in parts per million and provides a very accurate assessment of allergic inflammation.

4. Spirometry before and after beta-2 stimulation
An examination of the respiratory tract, which allows you to determine the volume of air in the lungs, as well as the body’s response to certain drugs.
Interpretation of respiratory chart readings after inhalation with a beta2 stimulant.

5. Laboratory tests (if necessary)

Blood analysis
Total immunoglobulin E (IgE)
Determination of specific immunoglobulin E (IgEs) based on the patient’s medical history and skin tests
Respiratory and food fadiatope (Pharmacia differentiate atopy) IgEs (3-5)
Composition of the blood with the distribution of leukocytes and determination of the proportion of eosinophilic granulocytes

2. Clinical examination
The reaction of skin vessels to mechanical irritation. Dermographism

3. Skin test for respiratory allergens by prick test
A skin test is performed on the forearm, using respiratory allergens and those most commonly found in the environment. The allergen solution is applied to the hand, then a micro-puncture is made using a special lancet to penetrate the drug into the dermal layer of the skin. The test result is ready in 15-20 minutes after the test.

For chronic allergic rash: erythrocyte sedimentation rate, C-reactive protein, complete hepatitis test, antinuclear factor, Complement and its C3 and C4 fractions, serum tryptase, parasitic serology.

It is very important to send us a list of suspicious foods before the examination!!!

1. Taking a patient history

Collection of anamnesis
Analysis of the factors that provoked the disease, nutritional factors
Revisiting a treatment already taken.

2. Skin test for respiratory allergens by prick test
A skin test is performed on the forearm, using respiratory allergens and those most commonly found in the environment. The allergen solution is applied to the hand, then a micro-puncture is made using a special lancet to penetrate the drug into the dermal layer of the skin. The test result is ready in 15-20 minutes after the test.
For “exotic” food products or for products that are not included in standard tests, tests are made from fresh allergens and applied to the skin using the “prick test” method.
