Allergen, Individual - Weed Pollen Cocklebur- Test Price, Normal Range | Sprint Diagnostics Hyderabad

The Allergen, Individual - Weed Pollen Cocklebur test is an effective diagnostic tool used to determine if an individual is allergic to the pollen of Cocklebur, a type of weed that is common in many regions worldwide. It's worth mentioning that Cocklebur pollen is a well-known trigger for seasonal allergies, also known as hay fever, among susceptible individuals.
