Babysitter said he started getting itchy and uncomfortable after being in the grass. Allergic reaction?

Question

Answer

I'm not allergic to grass but I definitely get itchy marks like that when my skin touches it. It's only the thicker, tougher kinds of grass. I think it's kind of sharp when it gets mowed. It could be an allergy, but the marks look more like the grass scratched him a little.

Answer

It’s not red and “angry” looking like a typical allergic reaction should be. Could just be a sensitivity or irritation

Answer

Yes probably

Answer

He's more likely to be allergic to the pesticides on the grass than the actual plant material. Also, grass isn't perfectly smooth, so it could be a reaction to tiny spurs/spkies, rather than the plant's chemistry.

Answer

My daughter is allergic to grass and it looks like someone scratched her everywhere the grass touched her and actually scabbed in a few spots! That just looks like a sensitivity, thankfully!

Answer

Sometimes I get a little itchy and red after sitting in grass but I don’t have an allergy to it. It mostly happens when I’m hot and sweating. Could have happened to your little as well. 
Definitely not an angry red rash though.
