Yes: Do you clean your clothes with bleach or are you cleaning things with bleach? Regardless, bleach is highly irritable and can cause skin problems via direct contact or through clothing washed in bleach. Always use protective wear when cleaning objects with bleach. Try using a different detergent to clean your linens.
