Abstract
Pollen-related food allergies, such as birch pollen-related food allergy, are common in patients with atopic dermatitis. Diagnostics consist of a careful history, combined with assessing sensitization to tree pollen and, if possible, crossreacting foods. However, several potential pitfalls exist. While cross-reactivity between pollen and food is associated with mild oral allergy symptoms, it is imperative to provide patients with some practical advice.
