Are you still one any meds, change soaps, try a new food? Are you broke out in a rash or hives? Try an oatmeal bath in warm not blazing hot water, doesn't have to be that colloidal oatmeal the stuff you eat works just as well, just make it a little finer on blender. I also would call my doctor. Good luck.

Could be your pain meds if it's an opiate cuz of the histamine. If its just your incisions healing then use vitamin e

Brown Kameleon is right...the pain meds make certain people itch like crazy!

Hey there,

It is just your body healing and absorbing the dis-solvable thread. I am four weeks post up and mine itch as well and i did not take pain meds. Have a good one.teeth_smile.gif

I know this is going off the subject but I need help with my profile, I have set up a ticker but can't get it onto my profile also having same problem with uploading photos.

Can someone please help

Thanks fluff xx

Hey fluff, there is a topic on setting up your ticker, just do a search and it will walk you thru step by step...

I itched like crazy also, but my incisions had gotten really red and were HOT to the touch, but this was a few days after my surgery. Had to go back in to dr and he said i was allergic to the glue they used to close my incisions..So he had to remove the clue and put me on a oral steroid to stop the reaction....it was aweful...
