SUNDAY, Nov. 14 (HealthDay News) -- If you're an incessant cell phone user and a mysterious rash appears along your jaw, cheek or ear, chances are you're allergic to nickel, a metal commonly used in cell phones.

While allergists have long been familiar with nickel allergy, "cell phone rash" is just starting to show up on their radar screen, said Dr. Luz Fonacier, head of allergy and immunology at Winthrop University Hospital in Mineola, N.Y.

Hey maybe the cell freaks will finally PUT THE PHONE DOWN and start paying attention to their surroundings again. Y'know, communicate with the person sitting at the table in front of you, instead of holding your hand up to silence them while you spend the next 20 minutes yapping at whoever's on the other end of the connection.

Or, I dunno, maybe, notice that your car is starting to swerve into oncoming traffic, instead of yelling at your daughter on the phone that she is -not- allowed to wear the green shirt to the mall?
