| walk: | I've had reactions to certain band-aids which I then discovered incorporated latex. I use them only if that's all there is available, and then change them asap. |

| PBricker: | Don't know if it was latex: it seems weird at age 53 I'd just now discover I was allergic to latex. The product is Johnson and Johnson First Aid Advanced Care Adhesive Pads. The box claims the product is "hypoallergenic." The last line under "warning" on the box is "if redness or swelling occurs, discontinure use and consult a physician." I discontinued all right. Back to regular band-aids. |

| walk: | I found the latex or band-aid reaction only like two years ago. So there will still be surprises for you. |
