A growing trend in the fitness world has been the integration of stylish wristbands that track your daily movement and calories burned in order to get tangible results for the workout you do. We've seen these wristbands grow in popularity over the last year and it's a great motivational tool for shedding off some extra calories.

When there's overwhelming positives, somewhere along the line a negative side effect looms and that seems to have struck the FitBit Force Activity Tracker. Many users are reporting they are experiencing large rashes around the wrist area caused by the band.

FitBit is currently a leader in this specific market and bands retail for $130. FitBit has since offered refunds and exchanges for all those who experienced a rash and are currently working to remedy all issues. Keep posted as we'll update on all future news regarding the FitBit bands and resolving the issue.
