Question
I have a 2 year old grandaughter that has many allergies ie: all dairy,nuts,processed meats,fragrances,animals,& many more. She also suffers from asthma & excema. She has seen many doctors & hospitalized 3 times. Is there anything to cure these allergies as opposed to treating them unsuccessfully? She is a very smart & happy child even with these problems. She is broke out alot & scratches herself till she bleeds.
Hello Brenda,
Allergies can come and go anytime in our lives. Having a very clean diet and taking nutritional supplements/herbs may help with her symptoms. You may want her to see a acupuncturist and see if the acupuncture treatments help.
Have a great day,
Dr. Brendon O'Brien D.C.
