I would appreciate any information or ideas about what the mom describes  
below that happened when she soaked in epsom salts for blocked ducts.  I  
thought perhaps allergic reaction, using too much of the salts, or increase in  
circulation.  I did suggest she not use epsom soaks again but substitute  
chamomille or marshmallow root tea.
 
Mom states: describe it as looking painted. distinct borders where the  
water stopped and an unnatural looking red, not like the red of inflammation or 
 an allergic reaction or rash or anything.
 
 
Thank you in advance for your input.
