What To Do About Daughter's Skin

My daughter has KP (a skin condition that causes bumpy things on her arms and legs) Basically it looks much like goose bumps but they are there all the time. A lot of people have it and its nothing that needs to be treated so we normally just leave it alone.

Lately she's been picking at the bumps and I don't want her to scar. The only thing I have found that does not contain topical steroids in it has oat flour in it. So I'm wondering if that also means it has gluten in it!

Anyone here use the Lame Advertisement baby care products with success???

burt bee's baby lotions and such are gluten-free

I can not find my list of products but they are great, I e-mailed and asked which did not contain gluten and I got a full list e-mailed to me.

I use California Baby Calendula Cream--it's very soothing and mild. They have other creams, too.

Kibbie,

My son had the same thing, and it stopped as soon as I quit using fabric softener. None of the creams worked.

I wish that were the problem... I've never used fabri softener on her clothes! I'm trying the intelligence line from Lame Advertisement now.... since their produts have been so great for my skin! If that doesn't work I guess California baby is the next step!

I'm glad to hear it actually went away! :) That gives me hope :)

I second the St. Ives Apricot Scrub - it's the best thing I have found. Also, I use Dove for sensitive skin regularly. Also, check the laundry detergent - I thought that because it didn't have some fragrance listed on the front that it was fine. It wasn't. Now I use All Free (I think that's what it's called) or the kind for babies.

Wow. Is KP another un-classic symptom of GI? My Dd has had this for years. On her face! Mostly the cheeks. I've found that it helps to use something slightly abrasive--then a gentlr clenser like cetaphil. THEN a good moisterizer like eucerine. I kept thinking it was acne--but it is reated to dry skin issues, the bumps are plugged folicles. Sometimes they turn into "blackhead" type pimples from dirt and oil. I really feel for her.

I've not seen a link... KP is genetic and does get better with age. I have seen no change in her KP since being gluten free...its actually flaring up now because its winter and her skin is drying out :(

I don't want to use a "scrub" on her because she is only 1 and scrubs make my KP worse not better so I think they will do the same for her. So far lots of gooey lotion in the morning and after her bath seems to keep it under control. But the Lame Advertisement baby products got rid of it completely... it just wasn't there! Darn them for putting oats in everything!

      Fighting for a name

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!
