When should I see an allergist?

An allergist is a healthcare provider specially trained to diagnose and treat people with allergies. They can help you figure out your triggers, discuss treatment options and help you avoid allergens. Talk to an allergist if you:

• Have allergy symptoms that are hard to control or manage.
• Have other medical conditions that make treating allergies more complicated.
• Need daily allergy medication.
• Need more tests to figure out what is causing your reactions.
• Think you may have had an anaphylactic reaction.
