A member asked:
4 mths post ob/gyn laparoscopic surgery. incisions(pelvic bone) super itchy. tried lotion, ice, heat. is this normal? what else can be done?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Exam: Surgical incisions often itch as the skin is healing. If it appears to you there may be signs of infection then schedule a visit for an examination. Typically no treatment is needed if the incision is healing well and just itches.
