Some children may experience allergies, especially during seasonal changes or when flowers bloom. If they smell a special odor, they may develop rashes and may also develop allergic cough, asthma, and other conditions. Parents will conduct allergen testing on their children. Can children have breakfast for allergen testing?
There are actually two types of allergen testing for children, one is skin testing experiment, and the other is serum blood testing. Both testing methods do not require fasting, so breakfast can be eaten without affecting the results of allergen testing. One week before the child undergoes testing, there should not be enough anti allergy medication, otherwise it will affect the accuracy of the test results.
There is no pain in doing allergen testing. Skin testing experiments mainly involve using some skin test solution on a child's skin, allowing the liquid to enter the skin, and observing changes in the skin to determine which ingredient the child is allergic to, and then finding allergens.
If a child undergoes serological testing, venous blood needs to be drawn and analyzed, which is an in vitro test that can detect allergens in the air and food. In fact, there is another testing method called patch test, which involves applying allergens to a child's skin for testing without causing any pain.
