I think a side effect is that your joints can hurt more after exercise, make sure your drinking lots and lots of water as that seems to help a bit (so i've heard), I don't think it would be doing permanent damage but check with your dermatologist/GP just to make sure.

thank you for the advice I will make sure I'm drinking enough and especially on the expedition. Hopefully I am just being paranoid, cheers
