pimples on thighs and back -- chelation or chlorine?

[Guest guest]

Hi,

Amino acid supps and coconut oil have helped my son's skin, but

something new has appeared in the last couple of days: Pus-filled

pimples. He began itching after swimming in a chlorinated pool last

summer, so we've been bathing him and applying coconut oil after each

swim. That has helped the itching and the overall appearance of his

skin, but the pimples are new. They appear only where his body is

covered by a swimsuit or t-shirt (that he swims in), but are not

everywhere that the clothing covers.

Perhaps coincidentally -- but perhaps not -- I have been chelating him

every weekend. Tomorrow will begin round 4: 37.5mg ALA and 50 mg DMSA

(130 lb boy, 10 years old). Extra biotin and No-Fenol appear to be

helping with yeast (plus other stuff for yeast).

Any ideas what could be causing the pimples, and how to treat?

TIA,
