10 Signs of Gluten Intolerance
Gluten Intolerance Sign #4: Skin Issues
People with gluten intolerance often experience skin issues. Dermatitis herpetiformis is a chronic skin condition that is caused by gluten consumption. It is most commonly seen on the forearms near the elbows, hairline, knees, and buttocks.
The skin often appears to have multiple small bumps or blisters that are itchy. These issues usually resolve once the affected individual adopts a strict and gluten-free diet. This kind of diet also improves other skin issues, like alopecia areata, psoriasis, chronic urticaria, and others.
