Symptoms

Dermatitis herpetiformis (DH), or Duhring's disease, is a chronic blistering skin condition, characterised by blisters filled with a watery fluid. Dermatitis herpetiformis symptoms are chronic, and they tend to come and go, mostly in short periods of time. Sometimes, these symptoms may be accompanied by symptoms of coeliac disease, commonly including abdominal pain, bloating or loose stool, and fatigue. It is most common in patients of northern European ancestry, and is associated with the HLA-DQ2 haplotype along with Celiac Disease and Gluten Sensitivity. Despite its name, DH is neither related to nor caused by herpes virus: the name means that it is a skin inflammation having an appearance similar to herpes.

Home remedies

There are three alternative treatments that you can employ to help heal your Dermatitis Herpetiformis. You can choose one of these:

You can also drink papaya juice or chamomile to boost the healing process. Other herbs, such as Aloe Vera and plantain can also be used.
  • supplementary treatment : While people who suffer from the disease usually lack Selenium, it is important that you drink some supplements that are rich in vitamin E. Vitamin E has been proved to help people regain the Selenium they need to maintain their health.
  • dietary treatment : You can also heal the disease by controlling your diet. It is wise to opt for gluten free diet too.
