Not eczema itself, but a gluten allergy can manifest itself in a rash. Research dermatitis herpetiformis.

Is eczema a allergy?

no


What is the allergy cauld when you are ellergic to wheat?

Well, if you are just allergic to wheat then it would be a wheat allergy. If you are allergic to gluten which does encompass wheat then you have a gluten allergy. You can also be wheat or gluten sensitive or you could have Celiac disease. Definately best to check with your doctor.


What is the difference between a wheat allergy and Celiac don't both have to avoid wheat?

A wheat allergy is when a person's immune system reacts against and attacks one or more proteins in wheat; functionally, this person cannot eat wheat without suffering gastrointestinal distress. Celiac disease is a condition in which a person's intestines develop an autoimmune response to gluten, which is a common protein in wheat. However, celiac disease can also respond to several other proteins and is tenuously linked with other gastrointestinal diseases.
