Brief Answer:
Better to extend the appointment for cleaning
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I must say that if you can extend your appointment for cleaning it will be better(if cleaning is not emergency for you). Contact dermatitis can have some sort of pain or itching which can be uncomfortable for you while doing cleaning.
Hope you understood what I meant. Thank you and have a healthy day.
