A few of my coworkers and I were complaining to one of our docs that we always have allergy symptoms at work and not at home. He said it could be the hand sanatizer as he has seen this reaction many times because of the harsh chemicals. We started only using soap and water washes and the allergy problem went away.
It does it to me, too. I hate that stuff.A few of my coworkers and I were complaining to one of our docs that we always have allergy symptoms at work and not at home.

I find that from time to time, going in and out, I start feeling worse as the night goes on...my nose/eyes start burning...I start coughing from time to time....then I switch to soap/water and they go away...sometimes, you just don't have that time for soap&water though....so you're stuck with the gel...

I have noticed in the last few weeks, at work, that every time I use the foam hand sanitizer or use alcohol I start coughing. It feels like it's going right to my lungs. I know it sounds weird.
Anyone else experience this?
