It is very necessary for children to do allergen testing, especially children who often have allergies. At present, allergen detection is divided into two aspects. If it is an intradermal test or skin prick test, it is necessary to stop using anti allergy drugs 7 days before the test or consult a doctor for more details. If it is an in vitro test, just make sure that you don't eat stimulating food in the near future.
Allergen detection can help children find allergens as soon as possible. It can enable parents and doctors to formulate effective treatment plans to prevent children from being under allergens for a long time, which is very effective in alleviating allergic symptoms. The earlier allergen detection is carried out, the better. Because early detection can lead to early treatment, it can also help and reduce the adverse effects of allergy, especially for some children with severe allergy. Allergen detection can provide them with a more hygienic and safe living space.
There are usually two methods for allergen detection. One is skin surface test, which is to test whether children will be allergic by smearing allergens on the skin surface, so as to find out allergens. This method is cheap, convenient and fast. The other method is the detection of serum specific lge antibody. This method is to determine the allergen through the specific leg antibody in the blood. This method is relatively expensive, as long as you pay attention to eating a little light before the detection.
Allergen detection in children is not applicable to all children, so the doctor should be consulted before the detection. Allergen detection is not necessary if children have no allergy symptoms in their daily life. Breastfeeding can be used to avoid children's allergies, which can greatly reduce the risk of allergic diseases in the future. Appropriate exercise can be added to maintain adequate sleep, dry and sanitary indoor environment, and reduce dust in the air.
