Military personnel encounter the same allergens and irritants as their civilian counterparts and are just as likely to develop contact dermatitis from common exposures encountered in everyday life. In addition, they face some unique exposures that can be difficult to avoid owing to their occupational duties. Contact dermatitis can be detrimental to a military member's career if he or she is unable to perform core duties or avoid the inciting substances. An uncontrolled contact dermatitis can result in the member's being placed on limited-duty (ie, nondeployable) status, needing a job or rate change, or separation from military service. We present some common causes of contact dermatitis in military personnel worldwide and some novel sources of contact dermatitis in this population that may not be intuitive.
军人接触的过敏原和刺激物与平民相同,并且在日常生活中同样容易因常见的接触而患上接触性皮炎。此外,由于他们的职业职责,他们还面临一些难以避免的特殊接触。如果军人无法履行核心职责或避免接触引发疾病的物质,接触性皮炎可能会对他或她的职业生涯造成损害。如果接触性皮炎无法得到控制,军人可能会被安排从事有限的职责(即不可部署),需要改变工作或薪资,或者被军队开除。我们介绍了全球军人接触性皮炎的一些常见原因,以及该人群中一些可能不太明显的新型接触性皮炎来源。
