Allergic to my wedding rings

Rings 7 years old - no problems until last 6 weeks when I've had 3 really sore breakouts on my fingers - burning pain and skin all red and flaky (yuk). Taken rings off for a couple of times but each time they go back on I'm in the same position a week or so later. Anyone had the same?

Mine went like that during my pregnancy
It was very random. Even more random was that I could switch them to the other hand with no problem, so that is what I did

Yes! Fucidin is what you need, however I now also have to take my rings off overnight- if I leave them on I instantly get the little blisters and sore red flakey skin (which the fucidin gets rid of straight away!)

Ooo. I have dividing for ds3s conjunctivitis but it was opened about 3 months ago. Should I give it a shot. Had baby 8 months ago so could be to do with that but never had it before after having a baby. It's really painful

Fucidin. Not dividing..

Just another thought. Do you wash your hands with your ring on and think it could be soap collecting underneath and causing your reaction?

Agree with chloesmumtoo

I had this exact problem after going back to work - turned out I was allergic to the soap in the office loos. Haven't had any problems since I stopped using it.

Bizarre but I've just started work at a new company and it's only happened since then!
