A member asked:

Can you be allergic to lanyards? i am 17 years old and i have eczema, after wearing a lanyard a lot, the back of my neck constantly has eczema on it

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Irritation vs allerg: You may have developed a contact dermatitis to a chemical in the lanyard. However the lanyard may also be rubbing against your neck causing irritation and aggravating a common eczema area, the neck. Either way remove the lanyard, use your topical anti inflammatory medication and see if the area clears.
