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...

Thanks. Almost 2 weeks later there are still slight remnants but it seems to be getting better.
