At Dyersburg Skin and Allergy Clinic, our allergy department tests for and treats allergic rhinitis and urticaria (hives). We have found that in some cases, atopic dermatitis (eczema) improves with allergy immunotherapy. Our treatment is patient specific and the medication is mixed here in the office by our highly qualified allergy nurses.
