[QUOTE]Originally posted by KittenGoddess: [QB] If it seems like the tights are contributing to the problem though, it may be something you have to address. You could try finding tights that are made from natural fibers. I know they make 100% cotton tights for children with eczema...which makes me think you could probably find them in adult sizes as well. Or perhaps a 100% cotton or bamboo legging instead of tights? Another option might be thigh highs or stockings with a garter belt. At the end of the day though, you want to start eliminating things that are common allergens so that you can better get a handle on what might be causing it. If getting rid of the tights is a problem, start with the easier things. Go dye-free & fragrance-free on your detergents and fabric softeners. 100% cotton on the undies. Gentle, fragrance-free soap (I like Cetaphil because it's also non-detergent). No body sprays, scented wipes, etc. on that area. You might even start keeping a food diary to see if you can track a reaction to a specific food product. If you eliminate all of the potential causes and nothing seems to change it, head back to the doc for a note that indicates wearing the tights is causing an ongoing health issue for you. Generally employers will work with you at that point to address it if something in your workplace or uniform are causing a health issue for you. [/QB][/QUOTE]
