Strange Place For A Rash?

[ssteen]

I have a question and I hope someone else can help.

I have been reading all of the post but don't seem to have found any that are similiar to mine.

I have been diagnosed with DH, my passed away last year and in researching DH, found out about celiacs and was tested for both.

The problem is I get an uncontrollable itchy rash around my belly button, has anyone else experienced this?

I don't know if its the DH or nerves or what.

Thanks

I don't believe there is any "usual" place for DH to occur. This site has articles on it though, so hopefully you can see how the description compares with your symptoms. Click the site index link on the left hand side of the page and follow the links from there.

I hope you get the answers you need.

It's maddening isn't it? Mine used to blister and peel. One thought, before diagnosis I was very sensitive to the nickel in many jeans buttons and snaps. I also would get rashes from watches and rings etc. If this sounds like you one remedy for me with the jeans issue was high waisted undergarments or a small fabic patch over the metal on the inside of pants.

So in other words, if you have DH or Celiacs, this can come out when you wear jewelry also, like gold?

Thats a great idea, maybe that is where the rash is coming from.

I also get itchy blisters around my fingers where I wear rings.

Thanks for the reply
