You have a rash that flares up in the same spot repeatedly

You recently changed products and your skin reacted

You suspect jewelry, latex, or a workplace chemical is involved

OTC hydrocortisone helps briefly but symptoms return

You want to know if patch testing could identify your allergen

Your rash is spreading or becoming harder to manage

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between irritant and allergic contact dermatitis?

Irritant contact dermatitis results from direct skin damage by a chemical or physical agent — soap, solvents, repeated water exposure. Allergic contact dermatitis involves an immune-mediated reaction to a specific allergen — nickel, fragrance, latex. Patch testing distinguishes the two when the cause is unclear.

How do I figure out what I'm allergic to?

Patch testing — performed by a dermatologist or allergist — applies a standardized series of allergens to the skin over 48–96 hours to identify specific triggers. This is the gold standard for identifying allergic contact dermatitis when the responsible substance isn't obvious from history.

Will I always react to this allergen or can it go away?

Once sensitized, allergic contact dermatitis is typically a permanent change — re-exposure to the allergen will usually trigger a reaction. However, avoiding the trigger consistently prevents reactions, and many people successfully manage this through product selection and environmental changes.

How long will the rash last with treatment?

With trigger removal and appropriate topical steroid treatment, most acute reactions improve within 1–2 weeks. Chronic or repeated exposure leads to ongoing, difficult-to-treat dermatitis that requires both identification of the trigger and more sustained treatment.

What side effects are associated with contact dermatitis treatments?

Topical corticosteroids are effective and generally well tolerated but can cause skin thinning and pigmentation changes with prolonged use. Non-steroidal alternatives like tacrolimus and pimecrolimus are useful for sensitive areas and longer-term management with fewer skin-related side effects.
