Hi Brenda
I had a reaction to the iodine as well on my arm, I was in hospital at the time and antihistamines sorted it out pretty quickly (ice packs helped too). They didn't know what had caused the allergy at the time, but I worked it out after having iodine drops in my eyes for a trial I was participating in, just a small reaction that time. I haven't really had any problems since (8 years on) and I don't have an issue with seafood or anything else. Might be worth getting it checked out if it doesn't settle quickly though. Good luck Vicki x
