I am waiting for a rotator cuff operation and have been diagnosed with a cyst, now i have an itch on my hand and elbow. what can i do for this?

Where is cyst?: Where is the cyst? In the rotator cuff? Rotator cuff tears do not cause itching in the hand and wrist.

Ok: Plan of action: 1. Have rotator cuff repaired by surgeon as scheduled. 2. Take opposite hand and scratch itching hand and elbow. This can be done by applying a repetitive side to side sweeping motion with your fingernails over the itchy area. If you get real fancy you can try a back scratcher.
