Nickel allergy. AAAAARRGHHHHGHHRG!!!!!

[Gamma Male]

So apparently I have a nickel allergy.

AAAAHHHH FUCKING FUCK FUCK FUCKITY FUCKING FUCK!

You may not think this is that big a deal, but you don't break out and get a rash from the button on your fucking pants. What am I supposed to do? Not wear pants? Tuck in my shirt 24/7?

I should probably provide a little background. About 2 weeks ago I started developing rashes on my left wrist and below my belly button. I did some research, and apparently I'm allergic to my watch and belt buckle and pants button. I just discovered this is what it was today. I've stopped wearing the watch and belt, and whenever I sit down I try to tuck my shirt in between my button and stomach. I've also been applying an antibiotic cream.


But tucking my shirt in between my stomach and pants when I sit down is hardly a long term solution, and all of my pants and shorts have buttons with nickel in them. What am I supposed to do?
Why me? I can't even wear normal fucking pants now? What the fuck, God!


Anybody have any experience with this?

Just... buy pants with a plastic button? :lol:
Couldn't you put some tape as a barrier or something?

I do have a jeans allergy though. Gotta use khakis 4 life.

[Miserabilia]

I don't know, I'm pretty much allergic to life itself so I can't wear watches either, or belts, but I've never been diagnosed with nickel allergy, my skin just hates me.
So yea. I manage, I just always wear cotton clothing and pants with soft inside, whatever.

I doubt an antibiotic cream is the solution this time. I know somebody with the same allergy type, and he only wears overalls, pants with plastic buttons and zippers. And he's very careful handling money :/ he also carries antihistaminic pills in his pocket.

Try getting some hydrocortozone ointment, i think it would help but it's not over the counter so you would need a doctors prescription

My geometry teacher said she was allergic to all metals. She could only wear bracelets and stuff for a short time. I don't even know what she does about her wedding ring though.

You could always get pants that don't have nickel buttons and/or zippers!

My mom has a silver bracelet she loves, but silver reacts badly to her skin, so she painted the inside of the bracelet with nail polish - so the metal doesn't have actual contact with her skin. Hydrocortizone is what you want to put on an allergy rash.

Thats bad = I know one boy who get the buttons replaced one denims etc cos he is allergic to the metals.
