Allergies

You have an allergy when your body believes that something harmless, such as peanuts or pollen, can hurt you. Your immune system overreacts. This can cause uncomfortable or even dangerous symptoms.

Asthma is a long-term lung disease. It causes your airways to swell and narrow. This makes breathing difficult. Asthma often begins in childhood, but people of all ages can have asthma.

This condition is an inflammation and swelling of your sinuses. These are hollow, air-filled cavities in your skull. They open into your nasal passages. Sinusitis can be a painful condition. For some people, it can become a chronic problem.

When the human body comes into contact with viruses or bacteria, the immune system reacts, releasing chemicals into the body to attack and destroy these harmful invaders. But when the body mistakenly identifies harmless substances (such as dust, molds or pollen) as dangerous, unpleasant allergies and asthma can be the result. Allergies and asthma can affect anyone at any age, sometimes starting in childhood disappearing for many years, and starting back up again. In extreme cases, allergies can even result in life-threatening symptoms.

Allergy Evaluations

All allergy evaluations are board-certified by The American Board of Asthma, Allergy and Immunology and performed by a physician who’s educated in an extensive allergy specific training program.

Granger Medical Clinic stays current on all of the latest options for allergy problems and will be here to guide you through the entire process. We offer accurate skin testing and optional blood tests and will help you select which test is the best for you. Along with offering a full range of carefully chosen medications to control your allergy symptoms, Granger Medical Clinic also provides allergy immunotherapy, which can decrease reactions to allergies without drugs.

Allergy injections

Granger Medical Clinic provides allergy extracts specifically formulated for each patient, based on their history and testing. Allergy extracts are made in a sterile environment in a laminar flow hood and allergy injections are computerized and constantly safety-checked.

Asthma Testing

In order to ensure the most effective asthma management, Granger Medical Clinic provides computerized pulmonary function testing and will evaluate your asthma with National Institute of Health guidelines. A personal asthma plan, combined with education and inhaler demonstrations, are also provided.
