    Area of Science:

    • Dermatology
    • Textile Science
    • Toxicology

    Background:

    • Textile fibers possess inherent physical and chemical properties.
    • These properties can interact with human skin, leading to various dermatological conditions.
    • Understanding these interactions is crucial for preventing adverse skin reactions.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review the dermatological effects of textile fibers.
    • To elucidate the mechanisms behind skin reactions caused by textiles.
    • To provide a comprehensive overview of textile-induced skin conditions.

    Main Methods:

    • Literature review of scientific articles and studies.
    • Analysis of the physical and chemical characteristics of textile fibers.
    • Correlation of fiber properties with reported skin reactions.

    Main Results:

    • Textile fibers can cause acute and cumulative irritant contact dermatitis.
    • Allergic contact dermatitis is a significant concern associated with certain textile fibers and dyes.
    • Contact urticaria and exacerbation of atopic dermatitis are also linked to textile exposure.

    Conclusions:

    • The physical and chemical nature of textile fibers directly impacts skin health.
    • Awareness and appropriate material selection can mitigate textile-induced skin problems.
    • Further research into novel materials and treatments is warranted.
