ALLERGY TREATMENT IN CONCORD, MA

WHAT CAUSES ALLERGIES?

Allergies can be triggered by certain foods, pollen, dust mites, and many other environmental agents. The onset of these issues is linked to our genetics; therefore, no two reactions are the same. In some cases, people may experience wheezing, while others may have skin irritation after exposure to allergens. Whatever the case may be, we can provide a complete allergy panel to identify your triggers and help you avoid them.

WHAT ARE THE SIGNS OF HAVING ALLERGIES?

Signs and symptoms of allergies depend on several factors. Your experience around your triggers is related to your specific genetic makeup and the type of allergy you have. For example, people who have food allergies may struggle with nausea, bloating, and diarrhea. Those with seasonal issues such as hay fever can experience cold-like symptoms such as stuffy nose, congestion, and swollen eyes.
