[VIRTUAL] OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE TO MANGOS AND CROSS-REACTIVITY (ACAAI 2020) - "His current rash failed to improve with Dexamethasone IM, Medrol Dose pack, Triamcinolone Acetonide, steroid eye drops, and antihistamines. Allergy team advised the patient to avoid scratching his face, continue with topical steroid creams, finish current Medrol dose pack, use Bepotastine eye drop and moisturize hands...Correlation of history, presentation and exposure provide opportunities for effective diagnosis, treatment and prevention. Similarly, increased awareness of future hypersensitivity reaction can promote risk mitigation and guide employment decisions."

Allergic conjunctivitis identified by symptomatic giveaways (Healio) - "Patients who complain of itchiness...for a diagnosis of allergic conjunctivitis, Melissa Toyos...told Ocular Surgery News...'Allergy skin testing, such as Doctor Rx’s Allergy Formula (Bausch + Lomb), can be performed to aid the clinician in diagnosing ocular surface disease, when to treat allergies and what allergens to avoid. The company’s tests are designed precisely for each area of the country and its allergic triggers. The test takes about 20 minutes and is performed by a technician with a physician in the building,' Epitropoulos said."
