Red Spots

[CountryGirl5584 115]

I am a week post op and I have red spots on my arms and upper thighs. They're not raised and they don't itch. I called the surgical coordinator and she doesn't think it's anything but she did put out a call to the dr. Has anyone else developed this?

Could be a contact dermatitis. Did you change anything, soap, detergent, anything?

Irritation but if you develop a fever head in right away.

I developed a rash on my arms and legs too post op and thought i was allergic to my pain meds. Stopped taking them and it went away in a couple of days

I've never even taken my pain meds since I've been home...bleh no fever which is fantastic! Still have the spots though

I had a red sunburn type patch on my shoulder and top part of my arm about a week after surgery. It came suddenly and the red dissappeard by the next day but it then turned very dry and scaley. It was never itchy. I have been moisturising it but its still there a week and a half later. Ive never had it before??

It's because of the ketones I saw a YouTube video about it might appearing on light skinned people.
