Good morning, Doctor.0:06
What seems to be the problem?0:08
Well, as you can see, my eyes are very red.0:10
They also feel itchy.0:13
Oh, and I have a runny nose, too.0:15
Let me ask you a few questions while I examine you.0:19
When did your symptoms start and would you say you feel better or worse when you are outside?0:22
My eyes started bothering me last week.0:28
And my nose, well, it started running a few days ago.0:30
As for whether I feel better outside, well, funny you should ask.0:34
I definitely feel worse when I'm at home.0:38
So that eliminates hay fever and seasonal allergies.0:41
It sounds to me like there is something in your home that is causing your symptoms.0:44
Have you moved house recently or bought any new carpets or pets?0:48
Well, I did buy a puppy a couple weeks ago.0:52
Do you think I'm allergic to it?0:56
Well, not the puppy itself.0:57
I suspect that what's bothering you is not your dog, but the dead skin cells that fall off your dog.0:59
Is there anything I can do?1:06
I don't want to get rid of my puppy.1:08
Just make sure your puppy stays out of your bedroom.1:12
And if you have carpets in your house, get rid of them.1:14
Wooden floors are best and you must mop them regularly.1:17
Okay, I'll do what you say.1:21
If it's the dead skin cells that are causing your symptoms, it will work.1:25
And I'm pretty sure it is.1:28
But just to be on the safe side, I'd like to give you an allergy test to confirm that you are not allergic to anything else.1:30
I will make a few tiny scratches on your skin and place a different drop of liquid on each scratch.1:39
If you are allergic to the liquid, you.1:45
Your skin will develop a red itchy area.1:47
Oh, that sounds alright.1:50
Do you have time to do it now?1:53
I don't have any other appointments to go to this morning.1:55
