My incisions are beginning to heal and the itching has begun they are so dry. They feel scratchy under my clothes. If i could only walk around in my birthday suit. :D Any suggestions?

You could try placing a band-aid over the incision when you have to be dressed. My bra rubbed one of my incisions badly until I placed some gauze over the incision. I have an allergy to latex so I avoid band-aids for me. I also had good luck with putting a little triple antibiotic ointment on the incisions. I'm nearly 4 weeks post-op and still have one incision from my drain that hasn't healed completely. It's looking good, though, with the ointment on it once a day.

Thanks, I will give it a try.
