Dear Catherine,
I am writing back with a question? If it is not an allergic reaction
then why did it respond so easily to medication? My dermatologist
told me a chemical burn would have blistered up and looked a lot
worse a lot more quickly than 12 days. Is this true? He also said
that PPD is used in other things, like clothing, sunscreen and hair
dye. I have researched it, and that is true. Does that mean we
should not even wear clothes with PPD in the dye. If I had this
reaction to it on my skin? Just curious?
Thanks, Jenn
