I'm not a doctor or anything but I am allergic to the adhesives on bandages, medical tape, and electrodes.

Sounds like you too may have had a reaction to the adhesive.

I can't tell you how to deal with it... if it's really bad or irritating you may want to check with your doctor just to be on the safe side.

I just usually clean the area where the adhesive was and let the area heal on it's own...usually goes away in a few days or so... I did go to the doctor the first few times this happened to me.. because I wasn't sure.

I wish you the best...
