Mite allergy in children does not necessarily require desensitization treatment and should be analyzed according to the severity of the allergy.
1. No need: If the child is relatively young and the allergy is not particularly serious, generally do not need desensitization treatment. However, you need to pay attention to regular cleaning at home, regular disinfection and cleaning of bed sheets and bedding to minimize the breeding of mites and reduce the frequency of mite allergy. At the same time with oral loratadine, fexofenadine and other drugs treatment.
2. Desensitization: If the child’s symptoms persist for a long time, cannot be controlled by medication, or the child cannot avoid contact with mites, desensitization may be considered. For children under four years of age, sublingual immunotherapy may be used. If the age has reached five years or older, subcutaneous immunotherapy may be performed as appropriate.
Since every child is different, parents of children with mite allergies should take their children to the doctor and follow the doctor’s instructions.
