I don't know if you've ever had penicillin, and I don't know if you've done skin test before penicillin injection. Anyway, Xiaobian has done it more than once. It's so sour. Xiaobian doesn't understand. Why is it necessary to do skin test for penicillin? If you want to know, let's have a look with Xiaobian.
Why do skin tests before penicillin injection? What effect does skin test have before hit penicillin?
Penicillin is the first antibiotic discovered by human beings. Its invention makes people no longer feel helpless because of the infection of bacteria. However, some people have dyspnea, pale complexion, cold sweat, blood pressure drop in a short time after using penicillin, and others even appear coma and death, which is the allergic reaction of the immune defense system of the human body.

Because of individual differences, the amount of antibody produced is different, so not everyone will cause allergy. The antibody that produces an allergic reaction to penicillin is a globulin called IgE, which is present in the serum, so skin tests can be used to determine whether the antibody exists.
This test is called skin sensitivity test, or skin test for short. If the skin test is positive, penicillin should not be used, otherwise mild or severe allergic symptoms will occur. Therefore, skin test must be done before penicillin injection.
