10 Symptoms of a Gluten Allergy
Symptom #7: Dermatitis Herpetiformis
Skin rashes can be caused by a wide number of things. They can be caused externally by physical contact with allergens or other irritants, or internally through things we have ingested or entered our blood system. The development of any new type of rash can be concerning.
Celiac disease is a severe form of gluten intolerance and can lead to a rash known as dermatitis herpetiformis. This can be quite sore, leading to redness and possibly blistering. It tends to occur on the buttocks, back elbows, knees and scalp. Rashes can be a sign of something potentially quite serious so they should not be treated with complacency.
