# Ficus

> This test measures the level of IgE antibodies in your blood specifically directed against Ficus benjamina, also known as the weeping fig. It helps show whether exposure to this common indoor plant is the cause of symptoms like sneezing, asthma, or skin irritation. Results can help rule out other potential triggers for indoor allergies, such as dust or pets. However, this test alone cannot diagnose an allergy, as elevated antibody levels must be considered alongside your actual physical reactions to the plant.
