Order Olive Tree Allergy Test | Tree PollenOlive trees are a familiar sight in many warm, dry climates, and their pollen is a well-documented seasonal allergen.

About Olive Tree Allergy Test | Tree Pollen in Albuquerque
This test uses a blood sample to assess immunoglobulin E (IgE) reactivity to olive tree pollen.
IgE is an antibody produced by the immune system that is associated with allergic responses. When a person is sensitized to olive pollen, allergen-specific IgE can bind to the proteins found in the pollen, which may lead to symptoms such as sneezing, nasal congestion, itchy or watery eyes, and, in some cases, asthma-like breathing difficulties.
Olive trees pollinate primarily in spring, and their lightweight pollen can travel significant distances on the wind. Because of this, exposure is not limited to people who live immediately next to the trees. The blood test is a convenient alternative for individuals who cannot undergo skin prick testing or who prefer a single blood draw.
Results are reported as a quantitative or semi-quantitative measurement of specific IgE. A detectable level indicates sensitization, but it does not by itself confirm that symptoms will occur. A clinician interprets the result alongside a person's history, physical examination, and other relevant findings to determine whether olive pollen is contributing to allergic symptoms.
