red puffy incisions?

I had my surgery on 12/10 and about 4 maybe 5 days ago my incisions were very itchy, but like a tattoo I did not scratch them at all! Lol.. I emailed this picture to my doctor and he told me to apply hydrocortisone cream on them and if it didn't get better then to go in to see him... I've been using the cream for 3 days now. Did anyone else have this problem? They're closed, not really painful anymore and there's no discharge from any of them.

I'm not the OP- but I had the same issue. I have crazy sensitive skin. They are all healed nicely now. I did go to the dr and I was told it was a reaction. After two weeks of 1% hydrocortisone cream all was well. I still have one little rash on one part but it is 99.9% gone.
