Vivoactive 3S silicone band rash

Hi there.
I have quite the rash from my Vivoactive 3S watch band and am wondering if there’s something I can do to avoid this. I love the watch and would like to keep using it but it’s starting to burn when wearing it. I wear it in multiple spots throughout the day so that my skin can get a break and I wash it as well.

There are lots threads on this in the forum.

In the end, you're probably going to find yourself contacting Garmin Support like I did. Garmin has been very good about it as it's not an uncommon issue. In my case, they sent me a different replacement band that breathed better than the original.

Assuming that that's what they will do in your case, while you wait for delivery, you need to ensure the band is as clean as possible before you put it on and wear it one or 2 notches looser except during activities where you should tighten it.
