Sir, I have an IgE serum level of 484 in my blood test report and have allergies in my body because of it. Can I take the COVID vaccine?

An IgE level of 484 indicates an allergic profile but is not a contraindication for COVID vaccination unless youre actively experiencing a severe allergic reaction. You should identify specific allergens to avoid flare ups. Please take an Allergy Panel Test before vaccination.

I have noticed dark, blackish pigmentation on my chest, arms, back, and lower portion of the neck, along with some itching. I have been receiving treatment at Batras Clinic for the past 15 months, but I am not seeing fast results. My recent blood report shows that IgE is around 516. Please suggest what I can do to effectively treat this skin problem.

I have been getting small red bumps on my skin during the daytime, accompanied by a burning sensation. This has been ongoing for 1.5 months, and I have already taken some medication. Which allergy tests should I get done to identify the cause?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

It seems I have an allergic condition. I have also done an IgE test. I would like to know what treatment options are available for this.
