Either you have it too tight triggering an attack of eczema or you have a nickel allergy that you were not aware of. Your next step should be to immediately see your doctor while the rash is fresh. If it is a nickel allergy you have a scratch test in your future with an allergist.


A Community Specialist will also come along soon and advise you to click on the Get Support link at the top right of this page (actually they will give you a link) and report this to Apple. You can do this while you are waiting for your doctor.
