What is this test?

Tree nut allergy is one of the most common food allergies in children and adults. Tree nuts include walnut, almond, hazelnut, cashew, pistachio and Brazil nuts. These are not the same as peanuts, which are legumes, or seeds, such as sunflower or sesame. Dangers of delayed anaphylaxis. Some allergic reactions are mild, but anaphylaxis is a very serious condition. Your airways can tighten to the point where you can't breathe. People with anaphylaxis can die within a half hour if they don't get medical help. Mild skin reactions of nut allergies often include: rashes, swelling of the extremities, redness and tenderness, hives. Antihistamines such as diphenhydramine (Benadryl) or loratidine (Claritin) can help relieve rashes and hives. Cold, wet compresses can also help soothe irritated skin. Traditional allergy tests utilize the Skin Prick method (also known as a Puncture or Scratch test) to determine whether an allergic reaction will occur by inserting possible triggers into your skin using a needle prick. If you are allergic to the substance, you are forced to suffer through your body's reaction to the allergen.
