Possible complications

Bacterial skin infections may occur.

Contact dermatitis usually clears up without complications in 2 or 3 weeks. However, it may return if the substance or material that caused it cannot be found or avoided. You may need to change your job or job habits if the disorder is caused by occupational exposure.
