Allergy Department Problems Treatments Allergy Department East Carolina Ear, Nose, and Throat - Head and Neck Surgery, Inc. has an Allergy Department to treat patients with inhalant allergies.
Allergic disease is very common and can cause various symptoms involving the ears, nose, and throat.
According to the literature, about 40 million people suffer from allergies and 25 to 30 million have allergic rhinitis. Common symptoms of allergies are nasal obstruction and clear drainage. After a thorough ear, nose, and throat examination by the physician, a patient may be sent to the Allergy Department for testing and treatment. The Allergy Department offers allergy testing and treatment following the American Association of Otolaryngic Allergy guidelines. We have two ways in which to test for allergies, skin testing and RAST testing.
