I had elbow surgery and had a plate put in a titanium plate put in my elbow to secure my radial head and since then i have been very sick i've haven't felt good i been sick too is this what kind of allergy reactions to titanium allergy
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably unrelated: In marked contrast to nickel. There are no clear reports on allergic reactions to titanium. The few reports that claim to describe allergy to the metal raise serious questions. In short, your symptoms are unlikely to be due to titanium.
