Allergy testing and immunotherapy guidance

Allergies commonly affect the nose and sinuses, leading to symptoms such as nasal congestion, sneezing, itching and recurrent sinus disease. Accurate identification of triggers is the first step toward lasting relief. We offer modern allergy testing and evidence-based guidance on immunotherapy to reduce symptoms and improve long-term quality of life.

Treatments Offered

Our allergy services include comprehensive testing, personalised treatment plans and long-term management:

  • Allergy Testing: Skin prick tests and specific IgE blood tests to identify nasal, food or environmental allergens accurately.

  • Personalised Allergy Counselling: Explaining test results, trigger avoidance strategies and tailored medical plans.

  • Medical Management: Use of antihistamines, nasal corticosteroids, leukotriene modifiers and targeted short-term treatments for flare-ups.

  • Allergen Immunotherapy (Allergy Shots / SLIT Guidance): Evidence-based long-term treatment to reduce sensitivity to specific allergens and lower symptom burden over time.

  • Environmental Control Advice: Practical measures to reduce indoor allergen exposure at home and work.

  • Coordination with ENT & Respiratory Care: Integrated care for allergy-related sinusitis, asthma or sleep-disordered breathing.

Symptoms & Causes

Consider allergy testing if you experience:

  • Persistent nasal congestion, sneezing or watery nasal discharge

  • Itchy eyes, nose or throat, or frequent sinus infections

  • Seasonal or year-round flare-ups linked to pollen, dust, pets or mould

  • Allergy-associated asthma symptoms or poor response to standard sinus treatments

Allergic rhinitis and sinus disease are commonly triggered by pollen, dust mites, animal dander, mould, occupational exposures and certain foods. Precise testing guides effective avoidance and therapy.

Prevention & Long-term Management

Long-term control of allergy symptoms often requires a combination of strategies:

  • Implementing environmental controls (dust-mite covers, air filtration, pet management)

  • Regular use of prescribed nasal steroids or antihistamines during high-risk seasons

  • Considering allergen immunotherapy for long-term reduction in sensitivity and medication use

  • Ongoing follow-up to adjust treatment plans and monitor progress

  • Coordinated care for asthma or chronic sinus disease when allergies are a contributing factor
