wo allergietest machen — what can you do yourself?

Regarding where to get an allergy test and what you can do yourself: Allergy tests (skin prick, specific IgE blood tests) are typically performed by allergists or dermatologists. Home test kits (e.g., finger-prick blood tests for common allergens) are available but have limited accuracy and are not a substitute for medical diagnosis. A positive self-test may lead to unnecessary dietary restrictions, while a negative result may miss a true allergy. What you can do yourself: track symptoms carefully (timing, triggers), keep a food/symptom diary, and consult a doctor if symptoms persist. For skin rashes, breathing difficulties, or suspected anaphylaxis, medical evaluation is essential. Evidence for self-testing is weak (practice/marketing). Caveat: Do not start an elimination diet without professional guidance, especially in children or if there is risk of severe reactions.
