Is it common for doctors to use medical glue to close the incisions? I told them I was allergic to it, they put an allergy tag on me, yet they still used the glue and now I have the hives and a rash.

Try Benadryl cream. It's a thin clear substance and that knocked down my itching. I just coated the whole area including incisions. Benadryl pills didn't help at all.

Oh my, that looks so itchy and uncomfortable. I find it strange that they used the glue even though you told them you were allergic. My glue lasted for 3 weeks before it finally wore off. Your doctor/surgeon should help you with this situation. I'm so sorry you are going through this!
