What do Allergy & Immunology Physicians do?
Allergy & immunology physicians diagnose and manage a wide range of allergic conditions, such as asthma, hay fever, and food allergies, as well as immune system disorders like primary immunodeficiencies and autoimmune diseases.
Allergists and immunologists treat conditions across all ages and organ systems, including:
Allergic diseases: Including allergic rhinitis (hay fever), conjunctivitis (allergic eye inflammation), atopic dermatitis (eczema), food allergies, and adverse reactions to drugs or insect stings.
Asthma: Chronic inflammation of the airways that causes wheezing, coughing, and shortness of breath.
Primary Immunodeficiency Disorders (PID): Rare genetic conditions where the immune system doesn’t work correctly, leading to recurrent infections.
Autoimmune Diseases: Conditions where the immune system mistakenly attacks the body’s own healthy tissues.
Occupational Lung Diseases: Lung problems caused by exposure to substances in the workplace.
They use medical tests, such as skin tests and spirometry, to identify triggers and assess severity, then develop personalized treatment plans that may include medications, allergen avoidance, or therapies like intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG).
Perform Tests: Allergists use various tests to identify the cause and severity of allergies, including:
Skin Prick Tests: Small amounts of suspected allergens are applied to the skin to check for reactions.
Blood Tests: Measure the immune system’s response to specific allergens.
Spirometry: A lung function test to help diagnose and monitor asthma.
Interpret Results: They analyze the results from physical exams and diagnostic tests to pinpoint the specific allergens or immune system issues.
Develop Treatment Plans: Based on the diagnosis, they create tailored plans that may include:
Medications: To manage symptoms and inflammation.
Allergen Avoidance: Guidance on Minimizing Exposure to Environmental or Dietary Triggers.
Immunotherapies: Such as allergy shots or sublingual immunotherapy, are used to desensitize the immune system to allergens.
Other Therapies: Including intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) for certain immune deficiencies.
In essence, allergy & immunology physicians specialize in understanding how the immune system works and how it malfunctions, providing expert care for a wide range of related disorders.
