YellowRose 21 Posted July 9, 2011 Well, thanks everyone. Right now I'm slathered in benadryl cream! I have been so careful to watch over my stitches. I didn't want my clothes irritating them so I carefully covered them with gauze. I used a LOT of tape to make sure it would stick. I had my first full day at work on Thursday. Now I am MISERABLE - and discovered IM ALLERGIC TO TAPE. What a strange thing. Scuse me while I grab my hairbrush and re-apply the cream!! Lol. Hopefully this weekend I can get the stitches out and the rash gone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ybnormal 21 Posted July 9, 2011 oh my gosh, I'm so sorry! I had the same itchy reaction to the tape and as a matter of fact I STILL have a big square on my tummy where the tape covered the bandage of the drain! Are you supposed to be putting benadryl cream so close to the incision though? be careful, the last thing you need is an infection on top of it, that'd suck!

YellowRose 21 Posted July 9, 2011 Oh yes, thought about that and went around them! The spots are still itchy today but not as red. Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
