Allergology
The consultations are conducted by Dr. med. Baldea Olivia, a specialist in allergology and clinical immunology, and are settled by CJAS Brasov for patients who come with a referral ticket from their family doctor.
Allergic diseases usually begin in childhood with atopic dermatitis, and may later develop into allergic rhinitis or even allergic asthma.
Allergic disease generally denotes any exaggerated reaction present in different target organs induced by external allergens, a reaction produced by an immune system activating mechanism.
In developed countries, allergic diseases are already considered epidemic, up to 20% of the population suffering from at least one allergic manifestation.
Allergology consultations can address patients with:
atopic dermatitis – consult and allergy tests
frequent respiratory infections (tonsillitis, otitis, laryngitis, bronchitis, pneumonia)
“colds” lasting more than two weeks, manifested by sneezing, nasal discharge, nasal obstruction, coughing, difficulty breathing, no signs of infection
allergic rhinitis – consult and allergy tests
asthma – consult and allergy tests
urticaria or other dermatitis (eczema, etc.) – consult and allergy tests
anaphylactic shock history or anaphylactoid reactions – consult and specialty recommendations
eye allergies – consult and allergy tests
insect sting allergies – consult and referral
angioedema with or without acute or chronic urticaria
food allergies – consult and allergy tests
latex allergies – consult and allergy tests
- those who have relatives in family with allergic diseases!
It is important to identify the predisposition for allergy to try to prevent allergic manifestations in these people
Following an expert consultation, allergy tests and paraclinical assessments (if any) an individual and personalized treatment plan is established.
