Detergents and soaps can easily cause an allergic reaction mainly because of the chemicals in these products. The allergy can be developed either for a new product or one that has been using for several years. It can range from redness and stinging to rashes and hives with severe itching. The skin reactions can be irritant contact dermatitis or allergic contact dermatitis. In irritant contact dermatitis, the skin gets damaged. It may get burnt, stung or itchy at the site of contact. In allergic contact dermatitis, body’s immune system activates an allergic reaction and may manifest as redness, itching, swelling or rash. It usually affects the lips, face, eyes, ears etc. In Ayurveda, there explained a condition called Sitapitha which can be considered as contact dermatitis.
Causes of Detergent Allergy
Detergent Allergy can be caused by any ingredient in the detergent. But the most common causative factors include perfumes, abrasives, preservatives, bleaching components and detergent compounds. As the body identifies a foreign substance as harmful, an allergic response will be triggered. Some other times, non-harmful substances can also initiate an allergic reaction.
Symptoms of Detergent Allergy
An allergic reaction caused by a chemical may get manifested on the skin about a week after its exposure. Most reactions usually manifest within 48 hours of exposure. Common symptoms include:
- Rashes or bumps on the skin
- Severe itching
- Redness on the skin
- Oozing rashes or blisters
