Answers to quiz 1

What chemical has caused this reaction?

The likely cause of his reaction to the beach “henna tattoo” is an allergic contact dermatitis to the black dye chemical paraphenylene diamine. Although the tattoo solution does contain some henna, this is much less likely to be the sensitiser.

What investigations are required?

The reaction will settle with the use of a topical steroid, he is now sensitised to PPD, and should he use a PPD containing hair dye in the future he will have a reaction to this. PPD allergic individual may also react to some azo clothing dyes, PABA containing sunscreens, amine local anaesthetics (benzocaine and procaine) sulphonamides and sulphone drugs.
