New Member with Dermatitis
I have hand dermatitis, which at present is driving me crazy with the
itching and burning.
The dermatologist gave me a steroid cream to use, but it doesn’t seem
to help much.
I’ve been trying to locate some food prep gloves online to buy so I
won’t have to handle foods that irritate me, but haven’t found a
source that wants to sell me less than a case. I live in a small
town so there’s no restaurant supply store nearby.
I’m having a really bad flare of itching and burning tonight just
from handling fruits and veggies while I was grocery shopping today.
Does anyone know of a site that will me a box or two of these poly
gloves?
Thanks!

I find polyvinyl gloves the best thing to use as you would want to stay
away from rubber which can be highly allergenic.
I don’t know where you live, but in Australia, these gloves are readily
available from pharmacies in 50 glove packs. Ansell produce them.
Hope that helps.
