You mean a RASH? you're probably allergic to or sensitive to the latex. Use a different type.

If you have a latex allergy not only will you have a rash, but you also get swollen and sometimes very sore.
I would recommend that you purchase latex free condoms. I find them to be good and no nasty problems afterwards. One draw back is they are often slightly dearer, but buying a pack of condoms is still cheaper than having a baby.
If you allergic to latex, you will have to let doctors and dentists know as it can get worse and become life threatening. Also be careful eating some foods such as banana, strawberry, kiwi fruit and some nuts as they are related to the natural rubber latex that the condoms are made from. Be careful of underwear as many under garments have a latex coating and never scratch a scratchy ticket ( lotto or mytery prize ticket)! The plastic coating is latex and if you get it under your fingernails it can cause an allergy and your finger nails might need to be removed. I had that happen and it is terrible!
Hope I don't scare you, but this is serious.
Good luck.

You may be allergic to latex the rubberized compound used to make most condoms. Ask the pharmacy to help you find a latex free condom.

If you develope a rash after using a latex condom, you are allergic to latex. Many people are. Don't use latex condoms!

I'm guessing that you meant to say RASH... It could be a latex allergy or an allergy to the spermicide. speak to your doctors.
