Rash on elbow

Hi there, 

Can someone give me some in sight on this please. I have this itchy red rash on my elbow for about 2 weeks now. It had popped up small then got bigger. Something like this popped up last year around summer time but I generally thought it was a spider bite but its not. I put hydrocortisone on it but it only lasts but for so long. Now this time around its gotten a little worse. Can anyone tell me what this is?

Welcome!  

Celiac disease can cause many rashes, but the most notable is Dermatitis Herpetiformis (DH).  It is usually bilateral (both sides of the body).  The only way to know for sure is to get a skin biopsy.  It can not be diagnosed visually.

As cycling lady said this is something to ask to get biopsied. Do you have any Celiac's in the family? 

I don't see any bumps in the photo but my experience is the burning red elbow begins first then the insanely itchy bumps begin. 

Good luck ?

      It looks like their most recent clinical trial just finished up on 5-22-2025.

      Dear Scott,  please check the link https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05574010?intr=KAN-101&rank=1 What do you think about it?
    • Scott Adams
      KAN‑101 is still very much in development and being actively studied. It has not been dropped—rather, it is advancing through Phases 1 and 2, moving toward what could become the first disease‑modifying treatment for celiac disease. https://anokion.com/press_releases/anokion-announces-positive-symptom-data-from-its-phase-2-trial-evaluating-kan-101-for-the-treatment-of-celiac-disease/

      Thiamine interacts with all the other B vitamins.  Thiamine and B 6 make a very important enzyme together. With more thiamine and other vitamins available from the supplements your body is absorbing the ones you need more of.  The body can control which vitamins to absorb or not.  You're absorbing more and it's being transported through the blood.   It's common to have both a Thiamine and a Pyridoxine deficiency.  Keep taking the B Complex. This is why it's best to stop taking supplements for six to eight weeks before testing vitamin levels.

      Yes I took a supplement that had B6 in it, low dosage though. I've stopped taking that. B1 doesn't affect other B vitamin levels?
