SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20220716-E8584-2147354971. Severity: Injury, First Aid Received by Non-Medical Professional. Matched catalog product: Fitbit Charge 5. Incident: I purchased a Fitbit charge 5 for my son for Christmas, after wearing it for about a month,he noticed wat looked like burn marks on his wrists. I researched online and it seems they recalled the [REDACTED] for similar issues. I think the one should also be included as it has just been sitting in the box for the last 6 months.
