100% natural latex irritates nose/throat?
I've ordered samples of 100% natural latex, some dunlop and some talalay, from about 4 companies now (Savvy Rest, Organic Grace, The Natural Bed Store, and Lifekind). When I have all my latex pieces on my computer desk about 2-4 feet away from me, I notice my nose starts burning a bit, like the nasal passages are swelling. The samples are now a good 2 weeks old or so and have been out of their packaging, so I thought they would be aired out by now. I haven't had any skin reactions from touching them, just the burning/stuffy sensation. Anyone else notice this? I've been reading the forums and saw some mentions of a latex smell, but mostly people say it goes away quickly and isn't that unpleasant. I thought 100% natural latex shouldn't cause any respiratory reactions? |
