Question : I recently bought silver bangles for my kid and after few days I found allergic type reaction (skin) on his hand. Although he was wearing XXXXXXX silver jewellery earlier as well but this is first time I saw such thing. Need your guidance and understanding on issue.

Brief Answer:
Avoid the trigger

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

I have gone through your query and have checked the attached image. Indeed it looks like allergic contact dermatitis, possibly as a reaction to the bangles. In that case the only suggestion to be given is to avoid using the bangles. However, if there is anything else that does not give him rashes, you can feel free to use it.

Let me know if I could help further.

Regards
