Skin experts are warning mobile phone users to watch out- they could develop rashes on their faces, ears, and even fingers. The rash is caused by an allergic reaction to nickel. 30% of the UK population is thought to be allergic to nickel, but woman are particularly at risk for developng phone rashes.

The rash won't appear by just picking up a phone with nickel in it though - you'll need to be chatting on your mobile for quite a bit before it will break out.

To me, this sounds like another case of people spending too much time on electronics. If your skin starts to rash up, maybe it's a warning sign to hang up the phone and talk to some real people. Thoughts?
