Yellow Dock Weed (rw23) IgE details
What Yellow Dock Weed (rw23) IgE shows
Yellow dock (Rumex crispus), also called curly dock, is a common weed of fields, roadsides and disturbed ground, and it releases wind-borne pollen in late spring and summer. This test measures IgE antibodies specific to its pollen to check for allergic sensitization. It can help explain sneezing, itchy eyes, a runny nose or asthma during that season, which overlaps with grass pollen season. A positive result shows sensitization, not necessarily allergy, and needs to be compared with your symptoms. Dock cross-reacts with sheep sorrel, so results are often interpreted alongside related weed and grass tests.
