Is it possible to be allergic to Nickel?

If you are allergic to nickel would you be allergic to gold?

  • What I mean is your skin touching gold and nickel I'm allergic to nickel and I can't wear nickel earrings So would I be able to wear gold earrings

  • Answer:

    A lot of people are allergic to nickel. Most people do not react to gold, which is why it has been used for centuries for jewellery, perhaps for this reason. My daughter is one of those unfortunate people who react to every metal, so she cannot wear jewellery at all, except for short periods. We only discovered this when she had her ears pierced at age 16, and developed a reaction to the gold studs. However, her situation is very rare (she is allergic to many things). I would be surprised if you had a problem with gold earrings. Suggest you try them and see.

You should be fine with yellow and rose gold. Just avoid white gold as that has nickel in it. I'm allergic to nickel but can wear gold.

You should be able to, but not gold plated. Try a ring or earring for a day and see what happens.
