>Dr. Montgomery,

It does seem to be an allergic reaction. My doctor suggested taking benadryl and using cortosone cream sparingly. I used the benadryl and the pain and itching are gone. I didn't use the cortisone cream for fear of more allergic reaction and I have been just fine with just the benadryl. I have contacted the makers of Terazol to find out if there is latex in the applicator. I will post here again if there is because more and more people are becoming latex sensitive. Thanks again Kim
