Scars are KILLING me!

If you are talking about the scars where the incisions are already healed, they are not going to open. Or do you mean the incisions are still healing? In any case, I would call my surgeon to find out what is going on. Good luck.

I totally agree with the above contact your doctor I am not sure if you think your incisions are going to open or if its been months and you the scars are itchy and hurting?

Did you recently have surgery? Sometimes the scar where my band came out bothers me by the end of the day. But, it's not painful, just uncomfortable. I'm 3 weeks post op tomorrow.

If you're in real pain, please call your Dr ASAP. Always better safe than sorry!

I had a lot of pain and oozing from my wounds post op, come to find out I don't do well with the type of stiches they used so rather than them dissolving like they should, my body was "spitting them out"

it was painful, and looked horrible. I went on a mild antibiotic just to be sure they didn't get infected, but after the strings came out they healed just fine :)

I didn't even know this was possible. I was allergic to the hypoallergenic glue they used during my sleep study. Now I'm worried this might happen to me! Yikes!
