Information about the prick test for an allergy

The prick test is most commonly used to check whether an allergy is present. Dust mite allergy, animal hair allergy and other immediate-type allergies (type I allergies) can be diagnosed quickly and painlessly with a prick test. The allergy-triggering substances are applied to the pricked skin on the forearm and after a few minutes a reaction appears on the skin.
