Are dates irritating/allergenic to skin?
DS has facial eczema which is irritated by things he's allergic to (some nuts, coconut, kiwi) and acidic / histamine type foods (citrus, tomatoes, spices, melted cheese) as well as some other random stuff (bananas, melon, cucumber).
This morning he came up in red blotches where he'd been eating dates and the dates had been against his skin. It wasn't hives or anything serious, and seems to have subsided now. Is it common to react to dates?
