Which test is used to identify the type of allergy that a patient suffers? Correct Answer Skin prick test
Once a patient is allergic to a substance, the best way to treat it is to avoid what he/she is allergic to. For this, a skin-prick test is done which checks the allergic reactions to as many as 50 different substances at once. This test is also called as puncture or scratch test. This test identifies allergies to pollen, mold, dust mites and certain food.
