Allergy Testing In Singapore

Allergy testing can come in the form of either a blood test or skin prick test. You may opt to test for a single allergen or a comprehensive panel of allergens. Our clinic currently provides allergy testing in the form of an Immunoglobulin E (IgE) blood test. IgE food allergies tend to cause an immedite reaction within a few minutes of exposure and may cause symptoms such as hives, eye swelling and lip swelling.

IgG Food Allergy / Intolerance Testing Singapore

We provide both Immunoglobulin E (IgE) and Immunoglobulin G (IgG) blood tests. Individuals may have a preference for IgG blood tests as a means of food allergy or food intolerance testings. IgG food allergies tend to cause symptoms several hours to days after exposure to the trigger, and may cause symptoms such as chronic constipation, diarrhoea, irritable bowel syndrome and migraines.

We encourage you to discuss this with our doctor before undergoing this test, to ensure that this test is suitable for you. These are some concerns you may wish to clarify with our doctor before undergoing a test:

What condition is most likely to be causing my symptoms?
Is an allergy test necessary?
Which allergy testing procedures do you advise, and why?
How reliable are these exams?
Does conducting this testing include any risks?
Is there anything I should stop taking before this test?
When will I learn the outcome?
What do these findings imply?
Next, what should I do?

Skin Prick Test Singapore

A skin prick test (SPT), also known as a skin allergy test, involves placing small amounts of substances (allergens) on your skin, such as your forearm, upper arm or back. The skin is then pricked gently and the allergens go under your skin’s surface. Our healthcare professionals will then monitor you closely. Results of any potentially allergic reaction will be out within 15-20 minutes.
