Detox rash since starting SCD -- unique or common?

[Guest guest]

My 3 yo son develops a detox or " viral rash " on the backs of his

knees (soft tissue that bends) when he detoxes. I first noticed these

rashes when I started supplements a year ago. They used to come and

go rather quickly -- like for 1-3 days at most.

Since we started SCD 2 months ago, Ben has had this viral rash almost

every day. It is about the size of a plum, on both legs, flaky, red,

and raised. No fluid that I can see, but there seems to be highs and

lows in the rash, like " waves " if you will. Lately, the rash has

bothered him and started itching. I have not applied creams of any

sort -- just give epsom salt baths and have him wear pants to avoid

scratching.

His behavior is great and his stools until a few days ago have been

decent -- I think we've triggered the 2 month yeasty beasties.

I'm just wondering if SCD has allowed his body to detox further and

if the viral rashes are a good thing? Has anyone else had a similar

experience?
