Show Notes

Host Marcella Feathers and guest Dr. Erin Rohman address some of the tricky signs of food and environmental allergies in infants and toddlers (spit up, chronic diarrhea, persistent eczema, and frequent runny noses) while providing reasons for comfort and hope to their parents or caregivers. The first step: a conversation with a board-certified allergist.

Dr. Rohman shares how an allergist can help parents work through possible causes of the child's symptoms and how, together with the allergist, they can determine what testing or eliminations are reasonable. This relationship and dialogue can ease parents' doubts and the anxieties that come with any unknowns. And by focusing on how to improve the quality of life for everyone involved, an allergist can help "open up the world for both parents and children."

Listen to learn more about how an allergist works with patients to decipher the causes of allergic triggers and how that expertise can eliminate your child's allergic reactions and improve their immunity and resilience for the long term.
