DH rash locations

Hi,

I'm new to the group but I'd like to ask any DH sufferers where their rash is most prominent and troublesome? I have suspected DH & the main areas affected are the rear of my neck on the hairline & the scalp. It also affects my back & torso.

Yes and legs, knuckles, elbows. Under control after CD diagnosis and diet.

Get (blood) tested, don't self-diagnose, so you eliminate other skin disorders.

My DH tends to flare up mainly on my face and scalp.

Have you had a firm diagnosis? If so are you taking dapsone?

Yes I was diagnosed in March this year. And no I haven't been prescribed dapsone. I assume that it is on prescription?

Not what you're looking for?
