Qu'est-ce que l'allergie au Spandex ?

Is it possible to develop a sensitivity to spandex? it seems all of a sudden most everything i wear itches. like picking me as if i was wearing wool. very annoying.

Lycra is a synthetic fiber which is not bearable for everyone specially for those who has sensitive skin.

Those synthetic fibers, when exposed to bleach, especially oxygen bleach, in detergent or in bleach product, break down and the affected pieces and fibers cause allergies or irritation in some people, and some more than others. The little pieces get loose and also get into both the washing machine where they can come out later and cause problems, and into other clothing. It’s likely that ozone in the dryer, exposure to UV light and oxygen over time, as well as to heat, do the same thing. I am beginning to understand, too, that men’s briefs have the same problem; there’s an actual rubber band in many parts of briefs. I just learned a couple new short sleeve shirts now are no longer 100% cotton, but have spandex in them. I suspect they never were actually 100% cotton in the past, and that even jeans that are supposed to be probably never were.

I think the solution, as far as socks goes, is to get a sewing machine, find some true all-cotton, non-GMO, organic, unbleached cloth, and make crude socks out of whole cloth. Problem solved. I plan to do that, and to even try to fashion some sort of cloth shape that will work as a sock, no sewing involved except maybe hemming. To experiment in cutting a piece the right shape to just fold the foot up in it and stick it in the boot or shoe. The dream would be to find an old sock-making machine and similar cotton textile thread as mentioned above, and just make a living producing harmless socks. A person could easily sell all they produced, and this at decent not-gouging not-even-high price. Imagine a few of those machines, and a robot to take care of them around-the-clock, to boot.

I know a co-worker who went through nine doctors before he found one who identified his foot skin problem as due to synthetic materials in his socks. I relate, very much. There seems to be a conspiracy by major retailers right now, trying to herd people into buying 8 dollar a pair diabetic socks with less synthetic material, and to sell more drugs for treating foot skin problems. When they put latex or natural rubber in a sock, you know they are out to cause a health problem in a high percentage of people. The textile industry are liars because they don’t understand the meaning of 100% cotton. They’ve regulated that to mean things like “100% cotton fabric”, then right under it “90% cotton, 10% olefin”, and you can hardly find pure cotton fabric. The retailers have the sock manufacturers putting just about as many different fibers as they can to catch as many people as possible with an allergy. Real cotton socks, all cotton, in the true meaning of 100%, used to be available, but not any more. They don’t last long, but they didn’t cause terrible skin problems. I believe that when an allergen is constantly irritating a foot, is when fungus can just move right in and take up residence. This is an industry-caused problem.
