I've been dealing with allergy symptoms like airway inflammation, itchy nose, and itchy throat for a while now. In the past, I used to have really bad wheezing, but since I started doing breathing exercises, I haven't had any asthma attacks. However, I still feel like I frequently have some kind of allergies. My symptoms include sinus inflammation, ear pain, throat pain, and irritation in my nose and throat. I'm wondering if it would be a good idea to see a pulmonologist for longer-term treatment. Can a pulmonologist help with all kinds of allergies, like food allergies, or should I look elsewhere for that kind of help?

So Ive been dealing with an itchy throat for a while now and tried a bunch of meds, but none of them seemed to help. My doctor suggested I get a Sr IGE test, which I did, and my levels came back at 373, but the normal range should be below 158. What exactly is IGE and does this mean I have allergies? Will medications help get my levels back to normal? And what kind of allergen could cause this? Would really love some guidance on what to do next.
