Allergy and Immunity

Reactions such as coughs, sneezes, itchy eyes, runny nose, rashes, hives, stomach cramps, vomiting or diarrhoea after exposure to certain substances, may be an allergic reaction. If you suspect your child has an allergy, it is essential to see Dr Lutchman to test and diagnose what may be the problem. Once you know the allergy, you can manage the occurrence of allergic reactions by avoiding contact with the allergen and ease the symptoms of the allergen with medications.

  • Allergy screening
  • Management of food allergies and intolerences such as cow’s milk protein
  • Management of inhalant allergies
  • Insect bite allergies
  • Treatment of allergic skin reactions
