It seems that you have an allergy to some substance that is used in your adhesive tape and glue. This is an unfortunate and rather unusual problem, but there is not much that you can do about it. The best way to handle an allergy is to avoid the allergen - the substance that triggers the allergic reaction. Today there are a few treatments that are available in order to treat some allergies, but the most effective and sure way to combat an allergy remains avoidance of the allergen.

If you like, you can visit your doctor and ask for an opinion; the doctor may recommend that you visit and allergy specialist, who will probably perform a few tests to determine the exact substance that you are allergic to. If you can do this, you may be able to use different products that do not contain these substances. Entirely avoiding adhesive tape and glue is probably not a very practical approach. If you are unable to use a replacement, the next best thing is to use gloves when handling these substances.

Whenever you do have an allergic reaction, the best treatment is a cold compress. Wrap a couple of ice cubes in a clean, soft cloth, and press it gently against the affected area.
