My daughter has suffered from eczema all of her life. She has very bad and constant erruptions on her hands and feet. She had a patch test done recently to attempt to identify what is causing it. She tested as very reactive to various forms of formaldehyde, cobalt, potassium dichromate, nicket, and latex. I was given a list of where to find these in the environment but the list was vague and basically included EVERYTHING around her. Metals, dinnerware, plastics, soaps, detergents, leather products,antiperspriants, adhesives,..... I need help identifying specifically which items to avoid. Does anyone no where I can begin looking. There must be somewhere to find a list of which plastics, etc. are most likely to cause problems. I might add that I also have had this problem only once I began to avoid all detergents and washing my hands immediately after handling any food my eczema cleared. ANY help would be appreciated. Thanks
