Does Wheat Cause Allergies?
My husband think he may be allegory to wheat. When ever he eat wheat bread he get a rash on his buttocks and hands. I worried there might be more going on. There wheat in a lot of foods. But this only happens when he eat wheat bread for a week or so with his lunches everyday.

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
It is possible that he is allergic to wheat since it seems to provoking a reaction when it is used.
Allergy testing would be able to determine if this is the case. Allergy testing can be in the form of skin tests or blood tests.
His doctor would be able to say where these can be done.
I hope this helps
