A member asked:
If my bun and creatinine are normal and no diabetes or ketosis, why does my skin smell like urine?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hmmm, I do not know: But, mostly what you eat, can be responsible for smells that can be transmitted through the skin. Especially certain spices can cause this. Play detective and see what foods/drinks you are ingesting, and altering your diet accordingly may help.
