So what you’re going to learn in today’s blog is that you can’t always take the number on the skin prick test and act on that number alone when it comes to feeding your child a food that they have shown an allergy to.

Skin prick testing (SPT) can sometimes appear to be done slightly differently depending on where you get it done, but essentially it is about getting a tiny amount of allergen just under the skin.

As well as SPT and sometimes a RAST blood test, it is essential that the doctor gets a good history.
