A member asked:

Would being in the sun have an affect on my gluten rash? it has flared and i haven't had any gluten for over a week

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: If by "gluten rash" you mean eczema herpeticum--the classic rash seen with celiac disease-- then "no". The sun should not affect this.
