Getting Rashes After Physical Contact. What Could Be Causing The Allergic Reaction?

default
Posted on Thu, 7 Nov 2013
Question: When my husband kisses me I get read rashes that itch. They last around a few hours. It only happens when he kisses skin that isn't red like lips, etc. I dont remember this happening with exes, but this is my first relationship with a smoker. Could that be what is causing the algegic reaction? Even when he washes his hands and brushes his teeth it still happens? What else could he do to prevent it? Its putting a strain on our relationship.
