Hi Pete,
I bought a Serta icomfort mattress and I think I need to exchange it.
I started getting itchy, and now I get hives.
What could be in this mattress that I should avoid in my next bed?
Thanks Kim
Hi Kim,
Memory foam is the thing to avoid....causing all sorts of negative physical reaction in people. Unfortunately, most mattresses have some.
You will have to specifically ask for a mattress with no memory foam.
However, your problem isn’t common among the many complaints I hear about memory foam.
Other sources of your particular complaint may be:
1) New sheets that hadn’t been washed before using.
Many new sheets are chemically treated.
2) A new laundry detergent, to which you may be reacting.
