HELP !! I Have A Couple Keto Rash ?'s

Will my keto rash stay the whole time I'm doing keto or will it go away as my body adjusts ? Another question does it always spread all over? Because mine only seems to be on my abdomen and on my sides . Any help would be greatly appreciated

You're going to have to find that sweet spot by slowly increasing your carbs until the rash begins to go away. Once you get it to go away that's how many carbs you'll need to eat to keep it away while being low carb.

I see I was doing 30 carbs a day . So maybe I'll try 40 - 45 instead. Thanks

I didn't even know this was a thing.

What causes it?

It's thought to be the body's reaction to acetone in the sweat. Possibly. It only happens in the minority and tends to go away within a couple of weeks.

Me neither. I had to look it up (the link includes recomendations): https://www.dietdoctor.com/keto-rash-people-itch-low-carb

@Mandafaye80lbs: I hope it clears up.

I've read online that keto rash has been successfully treated with doxycycline.

I know everyone goes about weight loss their own way, but a diet that causes a rash?!? WHY?

To each their own...

treat for fungus and parasites before deciding that it is keto rash.
