Every time I try and wear my Fitbit blaze my wrist breaks out into a rash. I have waited until the rash cleared up and it comes back once I wear again. I have cleaned the band and nothing seems to help. Is anyone else having this issue? What should I do?

Yes. 

I’ve had this issue as well, with all 3 Fitbit I’ve owned- flex, charge, and Blaze.

more concerning is that I am an absolute clean freak and I sanitize my band every time I take it off, and have even treated my wrist with lotramin in case of a fungal infection.

Have you tried a leather band? I just replaced mine with this one. Only $10....

I know I’m the same have cleaned with soap, sanitizer and even rubbing alcohol. Not seems like I’ve done nothing. Very upsetting since it’s not a cheap watch.

I’ve been reluctant on the leather band just for the fact that if it is something bacterial (despite the best efforts to sanitize); wouldn’t leather be worse?
