Consumers Report Chemical Burns from Always Pads, Demand Action
A recent social media video has brought to light a concerning issue regarding feminine hygiene products, specifically Always brand pads. User "ratqueen910" shared her distressing experience of suffering severe chemical burns, which she attributes directly to using Always pads. Her account, uploaded on October 15, 2025, quickly gained traction, accumulating over 54,000 views, 2,700 likes, and 247 comments, many from individuals claiming similar adverse reactions. The user described experiencing "the worst chemical burn ever" between her legs approximately two months prior to her video. Initially, she dismissed the irritation as chafing or an allergic reaction to underwear materials. However, after encountering other online testimonials, she concluded that the Always pads were the culprit. "I've used them since I was in like sixth grade," she stated, suggesting a recent change in the product's formula or manufacturing process. Seeking medical attention, she consulted healthcare professionals, spending significant money on consultations and antibiotics for what was initially misdiagnosed. She firmly believes her symptoms were "definitely from the Always pads," highlighting the emotional distress and financial burden incurred. The video concludes with a fervent call for a class-action lawsuit, asserting, "I need some money for my pain and suffering." This incident underscores broader concerns about product safety and quality control within the feminine hygiene industry, prompting a wider discussion among consumers about trusted brands and potential health risks.
