Pediatric Allergies

During your child’s consultation, Dr. Abbas conducts a thorough medical history and physical examination to understand allergy triggers and symptoms. When necessary, he recommends allergy testing, such as skin prick tests or blood tests, to accurately diagnose specific allergens.

Management of pediatric allergies often involves a combination of strategies including allergen avoidance, medication, and immunotherapy. Dr. Abbas works closely with families to develop individualized treatment plans that minimize exposure to allergens while ensuring your child’s overall health is supported. Common treatments may include antihistamines, nasal sprays, inhalers, or topical creams depending on the type and severity of the allergy.

Education is a key part of allergy care. Dr. Abbas guides parents and children on recognizing early signs of allergic reactions, managing acute episodes, and implementing preventive measures at home, school, and other environments. For children with food allergies or severe reactions like anaphylaxis, he provides essential training on emergency preparedness, including the use of epinephrine auto-injectors.

At Nurture Children’s Clinic, we strive to provide a supportive and reassuring atmosphere where your child’s allergic condition can be effectively controlled. Early intervention and ongoing care help reduce flare-ups, improve comfort, and allow your child to enjoy a healthy, active lifestyle.

With Dr. Abbas Patanwala’s expertise in pediatric allergies, your child will receive attentive, personalized care that addresses both symptoms and causes—ensuring better health and peace of mind for your whole family.
