Gold or artificial jewelry  email this discussion to a friend?

Are you allergic to any metal, especially Gold? My sister-in-law is allergic to artificial jewelry, whereas my daughter to Gold. I wonder what is the reason for this problem. every time she puts on a chain or earnings made of gold, she gets all itchy and keeps tugging at the piece , trying to get rid of it. I myself am allergic to wood, I can't sit on any wooden furniture, or rest my arms on a wooden table, unless there is cushion and table cover. MY body gets red and starts to itch.
So do you have any allergy of this nature, that the common man would find weird.

No i don't have such a allergy on gold or artificial jewelry. Usually i use artificial jewelry as gold is expensive. But then i never feen any kind of trouble. But yes i have allergy problem. Some foods make itches or red in my body. Then i take some medicine and it's recover. But it's not a serious problem.

i have no such allergies and love sterling silver jewellry because of the colour and the price. i love variety and stuff that is different and you can change the jewellry up a lot because sterling is so inexpensive.

I'm allergic to some artificial jewelry metals. I'm not certain which ones but there are some jewelry pieces that I'll wear and find myself breaking out in a rash and getting itchy. Other, even some artificial others, I get no reaction at all. I'm not allergic to silver or gold, but a friend of mine is allergic to practically every metal including silver, gold, and nickel. She was so excited when she found stainless steal rings she could wear.
What's the reason? The reason for any allergy. Your immune system is reacting to something as if it's dangerous even though it isn't. People can literally be allergic to anything. Foods, metals, pollens, and even sunshine.

Gold or artificial jewelry? I'll go for genuine Gold. The reason is, I am an investor. I buy and sell Gold online through BullionVault. I like precious metals like Gold. When you are not sure of the economic situations, shelter your wealth in precious metals, like Gold. Gold is gold. It's the best!

I am allergic to nickel which is used in a lot of jewellery. The main problem I have is with earrings, I can wear them for a few hours but I have to remember to take them out or my earlobes become sore and swollen. If this happens, when I try to remove the earrings its painful and can cause bleeding if the swelling is bad.

For this reason, I have to check the metal content when I buy earrings, and I have found the best ones have resin to go through the holes instead of metal. If I forget to take those out, no problem!

hi vodasandii I am not allergic to metals but my right leg broke out and I do not know what caused it, the doctor said its hives so that means a contact allergy. but its so odd that it is only on one leg. since taking a week of powerful steroids that nearly did me in the hives are now tiny pink dots but something sure was unkind to the skin of my leg. its still a mystery to me. hope it does not happen again. lol lol.thumbdowndevilevil grin

i have never heard of a wood allergy. that's really strange. maybe it's the varnish or paint you're allergic to.

i've never liked gold though i have kept the jewelry my mother gave me and my sisters. i only use it for very special occasions. happy

when silver become popular i noticed that i could only tolerate the earrings from the baby section, the sterilized kind. my ears itch when i wear artificial fancy over-the-counter jewelry. sad

my skin is not as sensitive as yours, i am glad of it. i have an allergy drinking beer, lol! artificial jewelry is nice for fashion purposes, for me i would rather wear artificial jewelry when going to attend a party, very attractive and fashionable. pure gold is very attractive to those people who like to steal things from others. so artificial is better if you do not have allergy, safe from thieves. have a nice day!

Yes,I am also allergic to direct sun light. When i exposed to direct sunlight i have
severe itching.In your case your sister-in-law and daughter are allergic to metals commonly known as contact dermatitis.It is caused due to skin contact with any substance that causes a rash like reactions. people react to variety of chemicals including cosmetics, hair dye, metals, topical medications and dental materials. It is advisable to consult a skin specialist as it may be heredity in nature.

No, I am not allergic to any metal. I just do not like to wear any if I can help it. When occasion calls like a marriage or an official function, I will take them out to wear them. Otherwise, best to be free of any of these.happy
