About Willow Tree Allergy Test | Tree Pollen in Berkeley
Willow trees release lightweight pollen that can travel through the air during their flowering season, and for some people this pollen triggers an allergic response.
When a person is sensitized to willow pollen, the immune system produces IgE antibodies that recognize specific proteins in the pollen. During exposure, these antibodies can prompt the release of histamine and other chemicals, which may lead to symptoms such as sneezing, nasal congestion, itchy or watery eyes, and throat irritation.
This test uses a blood sample to measure the level of willow-specific IgE. Because it is a blood test rather than a skin prick test, it does not require direct exposure of the skin to pollen extracts, and it can be performed while a person is taking certain medications that might interfere with skin testing.
Results are reported as a numeric value or class that indicates whether IgE antibodies to willow pollen were detected. A positive result suggests sensitization, but it does not by itself diagnose an allergy or predict how severe symptoms will be. A healthcare provider interprets the result alongside a person's symptom history and other clinical findings.
