What does a Paediatric Allergy and Immunology doctor do?
A paediatric allergist-immunologist treats allergic diseases in children — food allergy, atopic dermatitis (eczema), allergic rhinitis, asthma, urticaria and drug allergy — and immune deficiencies (frequent, severe infections). Allergic diseases often follow one another in an 'allergic march': eczema in infancy, then food allergy, later rhinitis and asthma — early intervention can break the chain.
Common reasons to consult
- Food allergy
- Atopic dermatitis (eczema)
- Allergic rhinitis and sneezing fits
- Asthma and persistent cough
- Urticaria
- Frequent recurrent infections
Frequently asked questions
From what age can allergy tests be done?
Skin prick tests and blood IgE tests can be done from infancy, even in the first months; the idea that 'allergy tests cannot be done before 3' is outdated. What matters is choosing tests that match the symptoms and having the doctor interpret the result together with the clinical picture.
Do children grow out of food allergy?
Most allergies to cow's milk, egg, wheat and soya resolve by school age; allergy to peanut, tree nuts and seafood usually lasts for life. The allergist repeats tests at intervals and plans supervised reintroduction of the food.
What should I watch in a baby with eczema?
Fragrance-free moisturiser at least twice a day, short lukewarm baths, soft cotton clothing and avoiding sweat and heat are the basics; during flares the anti-inflammatory cream prescribed by the doctor must be used in the right amount. Not every eczema is caused by food allergy — do not start a diet on your own.
My child is ill all the time — could it be immune deficiency?
It is normal for a child at nursery to have 6–10 mild viral infections a year. More than 2 pneumonias or 4 ear infections a year, infections that do not respond to antibiotics or involve unusual organisms, and poor growth call for an immunology assessment.
