Just wondering, just noticed ds has these all over the back of his arms. I"ll try to get a picture up tomorrow...I don't think it itches, I never see him scratch his arms(it's on the back of his arms) and never complains that it's itchy.

I've looked at lots of pictures and still can't tell what it is, I'll be making a derm appointment for him, but thought I"d check here. :)

DH ITCHES!!!!! And or burns & or stings.

However, it could be a precursor to dh.

Could it be keratosis pilaris? I have this problem, it has caused me great embarrassment before I knew what it was.

There are other skin conditions associated with celiac disease: Open Original Shared Link

It may be one of those.

      Burning Sensation in the small intestine

      Yes, @trents is right, ascorbic acid can be irritating. Do you take it with food? Do you take other supplements or vitamins? Do you eat processed meats? Is your diet high in carbohydrates?

      Be careful with C supplementation. It's ascorbic "acid". Too much can cause stomach and gut irritation.
