Roughly 20% of Americans suffer from some form of allergic disease. Allergic conditions can take the form of allergic rhinitis (nasal itching, sneezing, congestion), ocular allergies (eye watering, redness, itching), skin conditions (eczema, hives), and asthma, amongst numerous others. Patients may also suffer from food allergies, which can manifest differently. If untreated, food allergies can cause GI symptoms, worsen environmental allergies, and they can even be life threatening. Dr. Lindstrom is the Brevard area’s ENT allergy expert with over 15 years of training and experience in diagnosing and treating allergic disease. In office Otolaryngic (ENT) allergy testing with friendly, experienced staff is available to accurately diagnose allergies. Allergy blood testing is also available for young patients or individuals unable to undergo allergy skin testing. Immunotherapy (allergy shots) is available from our allergy department to safely and effectively diminish allergy symptoms, and often eliminate allergies, allergy related diseases, and even sinusitis. Many of our patients choose to administer their injections at home, increasing convenience and reducing cost.
