Getting skin irritation from your Apple Watch? Apple says you might be wearing it wrong
It appears that some Apple Watch users are experiencing a skin irritation from wearing their new smartwatch. Rashes and ugly looking red welts have appeared on the wrists of those who are allergic to the materials that are being used to produce the watch and bands. One Apple Watch owner who had an allergic reaction on his wrist after wearing the device called Apple. The tech titan spent about 20 minutes on the phone getting medical history voluntarily, for research purposes.
Similar to Steve Jobs' comments that Apple iPhone 4 owners were holding their phone wrong, the company says that some Apple Watch users are wearing the timepiece incorrectly. Apple says that if you have the band too tight, it can cause irritation, and if you wear the band too loosely it can cause rubbing. Apple says that you need to have the band tightened just right. If you're not Goldilocks, this means that it should be snug, but comfortable.
Apple says that if you are experiencing irritation from wearing your Apple Watch, you should consult your physician before putting it back on your wrist.
Thanks for the tip, Suzanne!
