Can Titanium Cause Small Skin Eruptions On Different Parts Of The Body?

Thanks Doctor ... A year ago in Sept. I had a tooth transplant which used titanium as the base of the implant. Is I possible that titanium is the cause of some minute, skin eruptions on various locations on my body? These pimples seem to be filled with a hard substance, not unlike dried pus. About 2 weeks after the implant in Sept. I developed a rhinitis condition, which is currently less active than previously. Thank you.

Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. Thank you for your query. I am Dr. Rommstein, I understand your concerns and I will try to help you as much as I can.
I did not hear for such reaction on titanium and it sounds to me more like infectious systemic disease and you should see infectologist for further evaluation.
I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us in every time.
