    Can you be allergic to platinum jewelry?

    At last count, worth about $l400. An ounce I wouldn't be allergic to it, no way.

    No, jennycarol, it isn't organic, so I don't see how it is possible to be allergic to it, but anything is possible, and you would have to be tested to prove that out.

    Yep tickle, Platinum being such a precious metal will not be allergic to skin(moreover), But What I was curious about, is that, has anyone come across (or seen) such issue of getting allergic to platinum?

    Actually what I was trying to say, jennycarol, in my travels through peoples healthcare I have never ever heard or seen anyone being allergic to platinum or gold. I have seen skin allergies caused by base metals though.
