Test colours before playing: Doctors

“A basic, small test can save you from any reaction and tell you if the colour you bought is harmful to the skin. Dr. Adarsh Kumar, a top plastic and cosmetic surgeon, advised applying a little colour behind the ear to test for a reaction.

 

 

“A simple, small test can prevent allergic reactions and reveal whether the colour you have purchased is harmful to the epidermis. Administer a small amount of colour to a non-exposed body area, such as behind the ear, and observe for any adverse reactions, advised Dr. Adarsh Kumar, a senior plastic and cosmetic surgeon.

“Notice if the skin colour changes at the application site. If there is a change or any allergy symptoms appear, this colour should not be used. “In the event of any problem, please contact a physician immediately,” Dr. Kumar advised.

“Such a test is beneficial for those who play Holi with coloured powders among family, acquaintances, or a small group. Additionally, when purchasing paint, one should choose colours with ingredient labels. Dr. Abhishek Shukla, secretary general of the international doctors’ association, stated that in this manner everyone will remain secure from chemically based dyes.

Regarding precautions to take on the day of playing with colour, doctors advised, “Applying a skin cream or oil to the skin prior to playing with colour and a homemade hair pack are effective ways to remain secure.”
