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!

      Protein or fat?

      By Jsingh · Posted

      Hi,  I care for my seven year old daughter with Celiac. After watching her for months, I have figured out that she has problem with two kinds of fats- animal fat and cooking oils. It basically makes her intestine sore enough that she feels spasms when she is upset. It only happens on days when she has eaten more fat than her usual every day diet. (Her usual diet has chia seeds, flaxseeds, and avocado/ pumpkin seeds for fat and an occasional chicken breast.) I stopped using cooking oils last year, and when I reintroduced eggs and dairy, both of which I had held off for a few months thinking it was an issue of the protein like some Celiac patients habe mentioned to be the case, she has reacted in the same fashion as she does with excess fats. So now I wonder if her reaction to dairy and eggs is not really because of protein but fat.   I don't really have a question, just wondering if anyone finds this familiar and if it gets better with time.  Thank you.

      High Cost of Gluten-Free Foods

      By Chanda Richard · Posted

      Hello, My name is Chanda and you are not the only one that gose through the same things. I have found that what's easiest for me is finding a few meals each week that last. I have such severe reactions to gluten that it shuts my entire body down. I struggle everyday with i can't eat enough it feels like, when I eat more I lose more weight. Make sure that you look at medication, vitamins and shampoo and conditioner also. They have different things that are less expensive at Walmart.

      Frequent nausea after gluten-free diet

      By petitojou · Posted

      Thank you so much! I saw some tips around the forum to make a food diary and now that I know that the community also struggles with corn, egg and soy, the puzzle pieces came together! Just yesterday I tried eating eggs and yes, he’s guilty and charged. Those there are my 3 combo nausea troublemakers. I’m going to adjust my diet ☺️ Also thank you for the information about MCAS! I’m from South America and little it’s talked about it in here. It’s honestly such a game changer now for treatment and recovery. I know I’m free from SIBO and Candida since I’ve been tested for it, but I’m still going to make a endoscopy to test for H. Pylori and Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Thank you again!! Have a blessed weekend 🤍

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!
