In Reply to: Allergy to Shower Gel posted by D. Lee on November 23, 2000 at 15:29:15:
I've never had a reaction that severe but once, swelling and hives. Normally, I just itch so bad I can make myself bleed if I don't watch myself, when I try and scratch it away that is. I can only use a select few to wash in the shower, and I can't really wear sweats, the detergent for some reason I think stays on them somehow? I do have relief these past few months with my allergies, which vary. I'm taking a supplement, and they seem to have disappeared. Let me know how he is doing or if you would want info on the supplement, I'd get that for you.
: Has anyone heard of an acute reaction to Radox Shower Gel? My 15 year old son had to be taken to casualty with severe swelling and rash all over his body (including face etc.) Breathing difficulties and usual
: anaphylactic symptoms.
