I have recently seen a new client who has been wearing the ICEROSS Comfort
suspension liner for some time. He states that for the first few weeks of
using a new liner he experiences severe itching that requires use of steroid
creams to control. I'm concerned that if this is indeed an allergy it may
well worsen with repeated exposure to the allergen. I've heard of this
before but not this severe. Does anyone have any ideas for a way to
pre-treat the comfort sleeve to eliminate the allergen causing this problem?
I suspect it may be the tin based catalyst used in manufacture of the
silicone but do not know this for a fact.
