Facial redness and red bumps


Jococo

Recommended Posts

Jococo Newbie

I have celiac. I follow a gluten free diet. I have noticed that my lips got really dry and I had to change to several different lip balms. Finally found a gluten-free EOS brand that worked. Unfortunately, now I have a red rash and red bumps breakout on my cheeks and around my mouth, ugh. Have I somehow been glutened? I’m so frustrated…. How do I find the right cosmetics/skincare? Anyone have any suggestions on help, direction, and coping skills with this craziness?

I know that this company, who has been an sponsor of our site in the past, makes an entire line of gluten-free cosmetics:

i had a terrible breakout 3 weeks ago and i’m a celiac 20 months gluten-free - don’t know if it was from eating eggs or tomatoes which i hadn’t eaten in awhile needless to say prior to eating gluten-free my lips and eyelids would swell up and flake - lips would be so cracked they would bleed - after eating gluten-free i’ve never had an issue with my lips but have minor flaking on my eyes still - nothing of what it used to be - i am also menopausal and hormones can also affect my skin however i generally use cetaphil as a cleanser and unscented gentle moisturizers -

      Thank you both. I haven't had access to the test results but will get them and post here.

      The ulcers are prepyloric ulcers. Not sure if that makes any difference.

      Duodenal ulcers are not uncommon either and often result from H.Pylori infections. https://www.healthdirect.gov.au/duodenal-ulcer

      I had what was termed "lesions," and normally ulcers are in the stomach, rather than the small intestines. I'm not sure why they would want you to have her continue to eat gluten, since she had a positive blood test, but as her doctor said, if she is uncomfortable and having symptoms why not have her go gluten-free at this point? If her symptoms improve, it would be another indicator that she has celiac disease and/or gluten sensitivity. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
