Does A Hcg Diet Lead To Skin Rashes?
I had started the hcg diet and was on it for two weeks. but i found i was getting rashes but i thought it would go away. i came off the diet after two weeks, began eating things like oats etc and the rash is spreading over my hands and has swollen. what to do? would it go away or leave a permanent scar?

Hi,
It seems to be an allergic reaction. I would recommend you to take antihistaminic like tablet cetrizine 10mg twice daily along with topical steroid like cortisone cream on the affected areas twice daily.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Asmeet Kaur Sawhney, Dermatologist
