Surprisingly, many who suffer from metal allergies are unaware that the metallic belt buckle is causing that uncomfortable and even debilitating abdominal rash. Allergy to nickel is the most common metal allergy and appears to be affecting growing numbers of men. Others are experiencing allergic reactions to cobalt, copper, chromium, zinc, stainless steel and more.

The first symptom of a metal allergy is typically an extremely itchy red rash at the site of metal contact. To complicate matters, the allergic reaction may not appear until a day or even two days after contact. The best way to pinpoint those metals that are causing problems is a visit to an allergist or dermatologist, choosing one who is knowledgeable in metal allergy.

If nickel has been identified as the offending metal, an easy way to determine if your belt buckle contains nickel is to use Nickel Alert™, available through AthenaAllergy.com or NoNickel.com.
