Allergy Testing – Skin Prick Test

Accurate Diagnosis for Allergy-Related Conditions

Are you struggling with unexplained sneezing, rashes, breathing difficulty, or sinus congestion? You might be experiencing allergic reactions. At APIC, we offer precise Skin Prick Allergy Testing to help identify the triggers behind your symptoms and provide targeted care.

Under the expert guidance of Dr. Asim Ahmed Qureshi (FRCP, MRCP UK, CCT UK), we ensure a safe, painless, and accurate allergy testing experience using internationally recognized protocols.


🧪 What Is a Skin Prick Test?

A Skin Prick Test (SPT)—also called a puncture or scratch test—is a quick, effective method to detect immediate allergic responses to multiple allergens at once, including:

  • Pollen

  • Mold

  • Dust mites

  • Animal dander

  • Common food items

🖐️ For adults, the test is generally performed on the forearm. For children, it’s usually done on the upper back.


😌 Is the Test Painful?

Not at all. The testing uses tiny lancets that barely penetrate the skin. There’s no bleeding and only mild, momentary discomfort, making it safe for both children and adults.


🧬 How the Test Works

  1. The skin is cleaned and lightly marked.

  2. Drops of various allergen extracts are applied.

  3. Each extract is introduced to the skin using a sterile lancet.

  4. Two control substances are applied:

    • Histamine (to confirm skin reactivity)

    • Saline or Glycerin (to check for non-reactive response)
