Curious case of chilblains being the only symptom of coeliac disease
Canadian doctors report on how a gluten-free diet cleared-up the lesions
Severe chilblains were the only symptom of coeliac disease for a 12-year-old girl, whose mother made the suggestion to test for the autoimmune disorder, a case report shows.
The girl had experienced chilblains for five years before being referred to the dermatology department at a Montreal hospital, the Canadian doctors said.
