- Internal MedicineA physician who specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of asthma and other allergic diseases is an allergist. The allergist has had special training to identify the factors that trigger allergic diseases, and help patients to prevent or treat these conditions. After earning a medical degree, the allergist completes a three-year residency training program in either internal medicine or pediatrics, followed by a two- or three-year program of study in the field of allergy and immunology. After passing a qualifying examination, the doctor becomes an allergist certified by the American Board of Allergy and Immunology.
- EczemaAlthough the exact genetic factors are not yet understood, the tendency to develop diseases like asthma, hay fever and eczema is linked to heredity. Additionally, heredity plays a role in determining which allergens will cause symptoms in people with allergic disease. Other non-allergic factors such as hormones, stress, smoke, perfume or other environmental irritants are often important in producing symptoms.
