Innovative technology can lead to a few new problems...
The British Association of Dermatologists has warned doctors to be on the lookout for a new allergic skin disorder called mobile phone dermatitis. Users of mobile phones can get a rash that is caused by an allergic reaction to the phone's nickel surface.
So if you have an unexplained rash on your face or ear, you may well have mobile phone dermatitis.
Coincidently, I suffer from allergic reactions to nickel, but luckily I don't really use a mobile phone.
