What is the role of immunotherapy in managing hay fever in children?
Immunotherapy, also known as allergy shots, can be an option for children with severe hay fever. It involves regular exposure to small amounts of allergens to desensitize the immune system. While effective, this treatment is usually considered when other approaches have not provided relief or if symptoms are particularly severe. Consult with an allergist or immunologist to determine if immunotherapy is suitable for your child.
