At NUH, we offer comprehensive allergy testing for children. This includes skin prick testing for outdoor allergens such as house dust mites, food and drugs, along with blood tests.
Treatment generally involves avoidance and medication.
Antihistamines are safe and effective, even for very young children.
Topical steroids, such as nasal sprays, are also a safe option. They require regular usage over days to be effective, particularly for reducing nasal blockage or congestion.
Please consult a doctor for an accurate diagnosis before administering any medication.
