Allergy Testing

A diagnostic procedure used to identify specific allergens that trigger allergic reactions, commonly performed in ENT offices to evaluate patients with chronic nasal and sinus symptoms.

Definition

In-Depth

What You Need to Know

Allergy testing in an ENT setting typically involves skin prick testing or intradermal testing, where small amounts of common allergens are applied to the skin to observe for reactions. Testing panels usually include environmental allergens such as pollen, dust mites, mold, and pet dander. Results are available within 15 to 20 minutes and help guide treatment decisions including allergen avoidance, medications, or immunotherapy (allergy shots or sublingual drops). Blood tests for specific IgE antibodies may be used as an alternative when skin testing is not feasible. Identifying the offending allergens is crucial for developing an effective long-term management plan for patients with allergic rhinitis or chronic sinusitis.
