Fiberglass dermatitis usually lasts for a few days to a week after exposure to fiberglass.
The severity and duration of the symptoms can vary depending on the individual's sensitivity, the amount of exposure, and the type of fiberglass.
Symptoms typically include:
-
Itching
-
Redness
-
Rash
-
Bumps
-
Pain
In some cases, the symptoms may persist for longer, especially if there is ongoing exposure to fiberglass.
If you experience fiberglass dermatitis, it's important to avoid further exposure to fiberglass and wash the affected area thoroughly with soap and water.
You can also apply calamine lotion or hydrocortisone cream to relieve the itching and inflammation.
If the symptoms are severe or persist for more than a week, it's important to see a doctor.
