ljperez 87 Posted September 12, 2012 I have had a little rash on my arms since I left the hospital. It's still there and is really itchy. My mom said its the anesthetia releasing from body??????? Anyone else have this. I've never had surgery before. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KinnymomX3 144 Posted September 12, 2012 It sounds like an allergic reaction. Maybe to the pain meds? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mattr2 32 Posted September 12, 2012 I had the same thing 2 weeks out. Developed a rash on my chest and back. Two weeks layers it's almost gone. Weird. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
COsleeveDude 273 Posted September 12, 2012 Try some hydrocortisone cream. If it doesn't go away or keeps recurring see a dermatologist. I have mild psoriasis and anesthesia always triggers it to flare up where I usually don't get it, like in my armpits. Which sucks, because itching armpits and deodorant aren't exactly friendly. And there's no subtle way to itch your armpits. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
