<s>[INST] How long does it take to recover from a severe chronic reaction to Gold. I am only allergic to Gold. I have wore it all my life. I had an allergy test done and Gold is all I was positive for. I know the reaction went on at least two years before I could get answers I have had reaction pretty much on all parts of my body. I am currently going through healing process I do know when the reaction of the salt grains come out it itchs and then burns like you are on fire. [/INST] hi sir/madam,Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.Treat your reaction by removing your earrings and washing the area with plenty of water to remove any remaining irritants. You can also apply an over-the-counter topical cortisone cream such as hydrocortisone cream. If your symptoms do not improve in five to seven days, you may need to speak with a doctor.hope this was helpful.have a healthy day. </s>
