If your doctors finds that you are suffering from allergies he or she will most likely prescribe you a prescription medication. If no medication is necessary, then your doctor will most likely supply you with some tips and information on natural and home remedies as well as how to deal with the discomfort and pain.

How does a Doctors Determine if and what your allergic to? Well, a few things can be done. Most test with be under the supervision of your doctor, but they may ask you to return home to do an experiment in your environment.

In office test could include sampling foods if a food allergy is suspected, different materials may be provided to see what causing the itching or rash is that is suspected. An at home test or experiment would be to return home, approach dog or cat first, see what happens, or maybe a plant or something else real specific..
