Patch Test: You may have a contact dermatitis which is an allergic reaction. Patch testing is a way of identifying whether a substance that comes in contact with the skin is causing inflammation of the skin (contact dermatitis). There are two types of contact dermatitis: irritant contact dermatitis and allergic contact dermatitis. See your dermatologist for a patch test.
