Allergy in Piety

I had an interesting case of a middle age Malay lady who came to see me because of an extremely itchy thickened lesions at both of her knees and some parts of her ankle. My investigative skills were challenged, but I finally solved it.

Turns out, her allergy was due to her prayer mat which she use to kneel and the cause of the allergy was due to the new detergent she uses to wash her mat. Asking her to revert back to her old detergent solved her problem.

You never know where allergy can pop up!
