Can allergies really be treated online?
Often yes. Straightforward seasonal allergy symptoms can be reviewed online when the history sounds typical and there are no breathing problems or severe-reaction warning signs.
What symptoms make allergies a poor online fit?
Wheezing, trouble breathing, fainting, swelling of the lips or tongue, or feeling very sick should be handled in urgent or emergency care instead.
