Allergy
ENTCare SWFL evaluates and treats allergic rhinitis and offers immunotherapy options designed to help reduce sensitivity to environmental allergens over time.
Allergic Rhinitis
Allergic rhinitis occurs when the immune system reacts to environmental allergens such as pollen, dust mites, mold or animal dander. Symptoms may include nasal congestion, sneezing, itching, runny nose and post-nasal drainage.
Treatment is based on the patient’s symptoms, examination and allergy evaluation.
Immunotherapy
Immunotherapy is designed to gradually reduce the immune system’s sensitivity to specific allergens over time.
ENTCare SWFL offers two immunotherapy approaches when clinically appropriate.
In-office Allergy Shots
Subcutaneous immunotherapy uses carefully measured allergen injections administered on a scheduled basis in the office.
Treatment plans are individualized based on allergy evaluation and clinical findings.
Take-home Treatment
Sublingual immunotherapy uses customized allergen treatment administered under the tongue at home.
For appropriate patients, this can provide an alternative to regular allergy injections and may help reduce allergic sensitivity over time.
