What Does An Honeycomb Pattern On Arms Of 10 Yr Old Indicate?
My 10 year old son has a spiderweb/ honeycomb pattern on his arms. No itching. No swelling. No pain. He has to follow a gluten and wheat free diet and is scheduled for his first visit with a pediatric rheumatologist later this month. Can this have something to do with the pattern on his skin?

Hi..by what you quote I feel that it is - STATUS MARMORATUS. This can even occur inconsequentially. Unless it is associated with other symptoms like discoloration of nail beds and joint pains you need not worry.
Skin conditions are best diagnosed only after seeing directly. I suggest you to upload photographs of the same on this website, so that I can guide you scientifically.
