Is this an allergic reaction to a bandaid?

Asked by jonsblond (43676points) May 4th, 2017

I had a growth removed and biopsied from my leg on Wednesday. I used a different brand bandaid today and now my leg is red where the bandaid was attached. I’ve had the wound airing out for six hours and it’s still red.

Is that just irritation or an allergic reaction?

I’m not worried, just curious.
