redness and itchy



Recommended Posts

It is great for so many rashes, and especially yeast rashes that often occur when skin touches skin. This can become extremely itcy and Lamisil can work wonders. I hope that you gave this a try. Of course you don't want to put it right on your incision, but simply on the rash spreading around it. I think you are going to find great relief. I make sure I always have a tube of it in the house. I can't think of a single rash that it doesn't give some relief too. Hope you are feeling lots better.

Dianne,

The rash sounds terrible. How are you supposed to wear your halter tops in this heat wave with a rash? Tomorrow my staples will be removed.

I got out of the house today to go to target. My husband is a substitute teacher so he can pick and chose his hours, since they don't pay the bills.

I didn't buy anything at target, Chloe needed coloring books and I just wanted to get some wind on my face. I used to love to nap, I haven't take one since Saturday.

I had almost everything your're describing except rashes behind my ears. Could it be hives? If so, the Xanax will keep you calm. But I had red bumps (tiny little blisters) all over my belly from the bandages that I was allergic to. Plus, my incision was leaking due to a port infection.

I was told to keep the area clean and dry, which was pretty stupid considering a leaking port is wet. If the area gets warm or red, it might be infected. If the wound heals over and fills with Fluid, that most likely means the port is infected. Let's hope it's just allergic reactions and hives, which are much easier to treat.

Have a nice Xanax nap :confused:

Thanks all, I am begining to feel a bit human today. Even went to the hospital to visit my friend who had the RNY yesterday.

Today is the first day I haven't had to take the benadryl every 3 hours. I'm still a bit red and itchy but so much better.

I just can't believe how this surgery has knocked me out this time. And made me depressed.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
