  • Patch Test

    Patch test is a procedure that helps us to identify the substance you are allergic to. The test involves the application of various test substances to the skin under adhesive tape that is plastered either on your back, thigh or shoulders and left in place for 48 hours.
    The skin is then examined a further 48 hours later for any response. This can help the doctor decide which allergens you are allergic to and identify those that could be aggravating your dermatitis. The doctor will then be able to advise how you can avoid the allergens.
