Sinusitis
Acute sinusitis is caused by viruses more than 90 percent of the time, but can also be caused by bacterial infections. If you have allergies, you are more susceptible to getting sinusitis when you catch a cold. If you have symptoms for longer than 10-14 days, you should be evaluated and possibly treated for sinusitis.
Pediatric Care
Charleston Allergy and Asthma’s providers are all board-certified in allergy/immunology. To become a board-certified allergist, medical school graduate physicians must complete a three-year residency in pediatrics or internal medicine and then pass a rigorous written examination to become board certified in pediatrics or internal medicine. Following residency, the physician will continue training in a two to three-year allergy/immunology fellowship followed by passing a second board certification examination. An allergy/immunology fellowship focuses on disorders of the immune system that lead to allergies, asthma, chronic lung disease, skin diseases and immune deficiencies that can lead to recurring and life-threatening infections. Once this fellowship is completed all allergists are double-boarded to treat children and adults.
Ear Infections
Diarrhea
Immunizations
Allergy shots are usually given in the back side of the upper arm just under the skin. They are not as painful as a flu shot or other vaccination. The needle is typical of what is used for insulin injections. Even young children rarely have issues with the pain from the shot. Charleston Allergy and Asthma nurses witness children and adults receiving shots with little concern for pain daily. Having a small local reaction of redness and itching in the hours after the shot is somewhat common but well tolerated by most patients.

Internal Medicine
In the United States, becoming an allergist/immunologist requires at least an additional nine years of training beyond a bachelor’s degree. After completing medical school, physicians undergo three years of training in internal medicine or pediatrics and pass the exam of either the American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM) or the American Board of Pediatrics (ABP).

X-Rays
Computed Tomography
The board-certified allergist will conduct a medical history, including an assessment of your symptoms and a relevant physical exam to look for polyps or changes in the anatomy of the nose (if necessary, a CT scan will be ordered). The allergist may also conduct skin testing to determine which triggers are causing nasal issues. Once the allergist knows the triggers that are causing your chronic symptoms, a treatment plan will be recommended.
Chemotherapy
According to the leading experts in immunology, when part of the immune system is either absent or not functioning properly, it can result in an immune deficiency. When the cause of this deficiency is hereditary or genetic, it is called a primary immunodeficiency (PID). Researchers have identified more than 150 different kinds of primary immunodeficiencies and they are continuing to identify new ones. If the immune system is unable to function properly due to other factors (chemotherapy, HIV, immune suppressant medications, etc.), the condition is called secondary immunodeficiency disease. Some primary immunodeficiencies can mimic other conditions including poorly controlled allergies, asthma, or eczema and vice versa, so evaluation by an allergist is extremely helpful for reaching a diagnosis and developing an effective treatment strategy.

Eczema
Rashes, bumps, itching, and redness are all common skin conditions; however, their origin is difficult at times to identify. The two most prevalent types of skin allergies are eczema (atopic dermatitis) and hives (urticaria). Both of these reactions occur on or under the skin.

Allergies
A board-certified allergist manages many types of allergy- related diseases. A history of allergy symptoms triggered by a possible allergen should prompt a visit to a board-certified allergist who will perform a detailed history and physical exam to help determine the need for allergy testing. Allergy skin testing is considered the fastest, most sensitive and cost-effective testing option for the detection of allergies.
