All metals contain nickel, at least as impurities. Fifteen percent of the population experiences an allergic reaction to nickel. These sensitized people may show an allergy to nickel affecting their skin, known as dermatitis. Sensitivity to nickel may also appear in patients with pompholyx. The reaction is not to the nickel itself, but the metallic salts created when the metal comes into contact with perspiration. Nickel allergies affecting ears are often marked by itchy, red skin. Many earrings are now made nickel-free due to this problem allowing those who experience this sensitivity to comfortably wear jewelry again.
