Seasonal Allergy Diagnosis and Treatment at TexasAllergy
Diagnosing seasonal allergies isn’t always a simple process. The first stage of treatment is clarifying the exact nature of your symptoms and what triggers them. We use a range of diagnostic approaches, including skin prick tests, blood tests, and nasal endoscopy. There appears to be a rising number of seasonal allergy cases, which makes finding effective approaches for sufferers more critical than ever.
We use the following approaches in treating seasonal allergies:
- Allergy Shots: This approach, known as immunotherapy, is a form of controlled exposure therapy. The body can develop improved immunity over time by introducing minute amounts of the allergen into the patient’s system. This option is a long-term approach aimed at reducing or eliminating the symptoms.
- Medications: Numerous medications can be used to treat or manage allergy symptoms. These include eye drops, antihistamines, and nasal sprays. Our team will work with you to determine which avenue best suits your symptom and lifestyle.
- Sublingual Immunotherapy: This approach is gaining popularity due to its convenience and effectiveness. This treatment uses a small tablet containing an extract of your allergen which is placed under your tongue. In the same manner as allergy shots, it can increase tolerance to the allergen over time.
- Lifestyle Changes: Certain lifestyle choices may place patients at greater risk of encountering their triggering allergen. Our team will work with you to determine the nature of your allergy and where you may be experiencing an increased risk of exposure. Combining air filters for homes and vehicles, masks, and carefully choosing when to engage in outdoor activities are all examples of lifestyle changes that may be effective.
We’re dedicated to ensuring our patients can successfully overcome the challenges created by their seasonal allergies. Our team meticulously evaluates the results of diagnostic tests alongside our patient’s medical history, lifestyle choices, and symptoms. We can create a treatment plan specifically addressing your needs using this information.
