Not to my knowledge, maybe your fingers got "bitten" by something else hidden among the rocks.

Alveoporas and jewels skeletons are very porous, thus very delicate. Like what nakazoru & Marineman have said, it is unlikely that the alveopora or jewel that caused your hand to itch. It could be something in the LRs that caused the irritation. There are 'tiny hairs' on the LRs and when they pierce your hand, it can cause quite an itch. Almost like a splinter. :pinch:
