I have personally heard of only one allergic reaction to silver; a man who worked in jewelry. His hands became rough, and large cracks appeared. When he stopped touching silver, the problem went away. This anecdotally relayed to me from a man who worked with the person who developed the symptoms. That was very probably sterling silver which contains other toxic metals, so it may not happen with high-purity silver. Has anyone done a search of the medical databases for silver allergy?
