Allergy Testing

We offer in clinic allergy tests during Sinus and Allergy Center visits. A skin prick allergy tests is done by placing a drop of a solution containing a possible allergen on the skin, and a series of scratches or needle pricks allows the solution to enter the skin. If the skin develops a red, raised itchy area (called a wheal), it usually means that the person is allergic to that allergen. The test takes about 20-40 minutes.
