Management of contact dermatitis due to nickel allergy: an update
Fernanda Torres et al. Clin Cosmet Investig Dermatol. .
Abstract
Nickel is the major cause of allergic contact dermatitis in the general population, both among children and adults, as well as in large occupational groups. This metal is used in numerous industrial and consumer products, including stainless steel, magnets, metal plating, coinage, and special alloys, and is therefore almost impossible to completely avoid in daily life. Nickel contact dermatitis can represent an important morbidity, particularly in patients with chronic hand eczema, which can lead to inability to work, a decrease in quality of life and significant healthcare expenses. Therefore, its management is of great importance. This article reviews diagnostic, preventive and therapeutic strategies in this field.
Keywords: allergic contact dermatitis; children; contact dermatitis; contact hypersensitivity; metals; occupational exposure.
