There have been a lot of allergy in the forefront especially when we wear latex gloves when we go out . When we are seeing a lot of hand dermatitis not only because of recurrent sanitizer us 4 but also because of gloves. So once you get a gloves allergy and you get a lot of itching sensation alone, first thing is to stop wearing gloves. You can change to vinyl gloves that are hypoallergenic or use PVC gloves. It is not possible to desensitize a person to latex but it is possible to use a different kind of material in the gloves itself. Please remember that your allergy might be associated to the latex but it might be a sanitizer dermatitis also. So please speak to your dermatologist to differentiate the two and teat you with topical steroids and topical antiallergic medications.
