What would an allergic reaction look like?!


Question: What exactly would someone that is having a allergic reaction to fabric softeners look like? Would it be small little bumps that itch?
We changed fabric softeners about a week weeks and a half ago and about 3-4 days ago my bf started to get these tiny little flesh colored bumps that itch on his arms and now theyve spread to his back, and neck. Or could it be something else. I dont have them at all, and thats the only thing that weve changed.

People react differently, but that sounds like hives and yes, that is an allergic reaction.

I have been told if you continue to come in contact with the allergy, the reaction will eventually get worse, so change back or find something safe for those with sensitivity to allergies.

Tell your bf to take some Benadryl.

Yes that definately symptoms of an allergic reaction. Many people have an allergy to different fabric softners. To be sure, don't wash his cloths with that fabric softner and these symptoms should disappear within a couple days. If it doesn't then his allergic to something else.
