Your doctor will initially start with listening to your medical history and performing a physical exam. Afterwards other tests might be ordered to help with the diagnosis. A common allergy test performed is a skin allergy test. Prevention is the best way to start which means avoidance of your known allergens.
Allergy Skin Test - This the most common form of allergy testing to detect environmental, pet, and indoor allergies. This test involves placing allergen extracts on your skin using a plastic brush; this allows for a small amount of solution of allergen to enter just below the surface of the skin. After about 30 minutes any swelling or redness is measured and, depending on the size, is considered a positive reaction.
The purpose of a physical exam is so your doctor can evaluate your body thoroughly and ensure all of your vital organs, such as your heart and lungs, are working properly. You don't need to be sick to get a physical exam. Physical exams can help catch illnesses and diseases early. If your doctor spots something early enough, they can get you started on treatment and help prevent something worse from developing.
Asthma is a chronic airway disease characterized by inflammation and swelling of the walls of your airways, and may be triggered by things that you are allergic to or find irritating. When the airways react, they get narrower, and this causes symptoms like wheezing, coughing, chest tightness, and trouble breathing, especially at night and in the early morning.

Report
I had concerns since I am a am a new patient, but those concerns were quickly dismissed. I was put at ease from the moment I entered the office until when I left. My check up with Dr. Kim was a good one, he took his time with me and went over my concerns as we discussed my healthcare. I am looking forward to putting my health care in the hands of Dr. Kim and the staff at Premier Primary Care.
