Open Question: Does anyone know any treatments for an allergic reaction towards zinc oxide?
I've come to the conclusion that i must be allergic to zinc oxide because whenever i have applied the medical tape or plasters that contain it, my skin has reacted and becomes raised and itchy, like a rash. I've contacted the pharmacist and the drugs company who don't seem to know what neutralises the allergy, so i was wandering if anyone else knew how i can treat it. I would be really great full for any suggestions because it has been a week since my skin reacted and the rash isn't subsiding. Thanks Charlotte L.
