Allergies Treatment
Allergies don’t wait and neither should ease. From the sudden sting of itchy eyes to the constant frustration of sneezing fits, these reactions can stop life in its tracks. At Doctor Help, our Australian telehealth doctors provide fast, discreet allergy treatment.
When Allergies Keep Getting in the Way
Allergies aren’t “just sneezes” or “just a rash.” They can disrupt your work, your sleep, even your confidence to eat certain foods or step outside. If you’re wondering whether your watery eyes are simply seasonal allergies or something more serious. Or you’re constantly avoiding foods for fear of a reaction. Don’t worry, we are here for you.
At Doctor Help, we understand that behind every symptom lies frustration, worry, and a longing for relief. That’s why our telehealth doctors take the time to listen, identify triggers, and create a treatment plan that helps you.
Understanding Allergies
An allergic reaction occurs when your immune system mistakes harmless substances, called allergens, for dangerous invaders. From food allergens like tree nuts and shellfish to environmental triggers such as dust mite allergy, pollen, and latex allergy, your body can respond with symptoms ranging from mild irritation to life-threatening emergencies.
According to Allergy and Anaphylaxis Australia, more than 6 million Australians are suffering from allergies.

-
Respiratory allergies:
hay fever (allergic rhinitis), chronic rhinitis, dust mite allergy, seasonal allergies. -
Food allergies:
the foods that mostly cause allergic reactions are peanuts, tree nuts, shellfish, dairy, eggs. -
Skin reactions:
sun allergy, skin rash, latex allergy, allergic reaction to insect bites or stings.

Frequently asked questions
Can allergies be treated through telehealth consultations?
Yes. Allergies such as hay fever, food allergies, or skin reactions can be assessed and managed through telehealth. Our doctors can discuss your symptoms, recommend allergy testing where needed, and prescribe treatments.
A food allergy is what exactly?
A food allergy occurs when your immune system mistakenly reacts to a harmless food as if it were harmful.
How does a telehealth doctor know if I need an allergy test?
Our AHPRA-registered doctors will carefully review your history, symptoms, and possible exposure to allergens such as food, dust mites, or insect bites. If allergy testing is necessary, they will guide you on the next steps, ensuring your care is safe, evidence-based, and tailored to your needs.
How online doctors can help with allergy testing in Australia?
Allergy testing, such as skin prick or blood tests, typically requires an in-person visit to a clinic or specialist. Our doctors provide guidance on whether such testing is advised based on your symptoms.
What are the foods that most commonly cause allergic reactions?
The foods that most commonly cause allergic reactions are peanuts, tree nuts, shellfish, and dairy as well as eggs.
Can seasonal allergies be treated online?
Yes, online allergy specialists can prescribe medication, guide allergen avoidance, and provide allergy management plans.
How to stop hay fever immediately?
Relief often comes from antihistamine tablets or nasal sprays, prescribed after consultation. In some cases, allergists may recommend long-term allergic rhinitis treatment.
How to stop sneezing quickly?
Sneezing due to dust mite allergies or seasonal allergies can be alleviated by the use of antihistamines or by avoiding triggering factors.
What is the difference between allergies and food intolerance testing?
Food intolerance testing examines digestive system response, but allergy testing notes immune responses to food which can cause more serious symptoms.
Is telehealth suitable for emergency cases?
Telehealth services are ideal for diagnosing and managing mild to moderate allergies. Severe allergic reactions, such as anaphylaxis, require immediate emergency attention and are not suitable for remote management.
What should I do if I have an allergic reaction to latex?
Avoid further contact and seek medical help. For severe symptoms like breathing difficulty, call 000 immediately.
Can a bee sting or wasp sting cause serious issues?
Yes. Insect bites may result in intense swelling or anaphylaxis in some people. Always seek professional advice if you’ve reacted strongly before.
Are antihistamines safe?
Antihistamines are generally safe and effective for relieving mild to moderate allergy symptoms such as sneezing, itching, or rash but are not effective for treating anaphylaxis or other life-threatening allergic reactions. Always consult your doctor for ongoing management.
Are itchy eyes and watery eyes always allergy-related?
Not always, they can also result from infections. Telehealth consultations can help you identify the exact cause.
What’s the difference between allergic rhinitis treatment and hay fever natural remedy?
Allergic rhinitis treatment often involves prescribed medication, while natural remedies may ease symptoms but may not replace medical care.
Do children outgrow food allergies?
Food allergies such as an allergy to milk or egg may decline with age, whereas others (such as an allergy to tree nuts) tend to remain life-long.
