Could my DS be allergic to oats?

DS has a delayed allergy to milk, soya, egg and wheat.

We took oats out of his diet a couple of months ago, and reintroduced a couple of days ago. Since then, he has a had a red sore bottom.

Could this be an allergy to oats?!

are they certified gluten free? There can be cross contamination of oats by wheat during processing. You can also be sensitive to oats themselves.

Yes they are certified gluten free.

My dd can't tolerate oats . But I'd persist if I were you , they are such a great food . Keep at it perhaps and see if anything else developes.
Sure it's not worms?

Waltons, never thought of worms! I do remember seeing some stringy white thing and she has been itching her vagina alot for the past 2-3 months. Oh no, could it be that? Will book an appointment with GP ASAP

what age is he? Worm treatments can be bought over the counter so no need for a GP

is it a dd or ds as your first post says ds/his and the next says she/her.
