Zirconium

What is Zirconium and where is it found?

Zirconium is a metal often used in industrial applications due to its resistance to corrosion and high melting point. It is commonly used in ceramics, refractories, some medical implants, jewelry, and antiperspirants. 


Why do I have an inflammatory reaction to Zirconium?

Inflammatory reactions to zirconium can occur due to sensitivity or allergic responses to the metal. This might be triggered by direct contact with zirconium-containing products or implants. 


What can I do about it?

If experiencing an inflammatory reaction, avoid exposure to zirconium-containing products. Consider alternative medical implants.
