Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am a 51-year-old male. I have been allergic to something for five months. Whenever I leave my city, sometimes I suffer from skin rashes or mouth and throat sores. It occurs mainly while traveling.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I have gone through the report (attachment removed to preserve patient's identity). Now there are two issues.

First is the diagnosis of allergy. Then, what exactly are your symptoms? Are the complaints mainly skin and mouth-related? Is there any breathing difficulty, cough, nose block, sneezing, or runny nose?

Second is the test used. A comprehensive blood allergy profile is only 50 - 60 % accurate. We depend on skin prick allergy testing for accurate results. If the allergy diagnosis is confirmed clinically, we can suggest a skin prick allergy test.

As per the report uploaded by you, you have allergies to various good and aeroallergens. The most significant aeroallergens on your list are dust mites, dog dandruff, and sawdust. The only way to avoid these is by taking immunotherapy. Let me know how you want to proceed. The serum vitamin D level should be normal for optimum relief from mouth sores and skin issues.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

My main complaint is about the mouth, throat, and skin. I do not have sneezing and breathing problems. However, difficulty while swallowing is present.

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I suggest you take allergy vaccines for these allergens. That will give you a lasting relief from the problems.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
