Itching around surgical wound



Recommended Posts

Hi there,
I was sleeved 5/18/17. Mine too were quite itchy for about 3-4 days. It is all part of healing.

As@Neyy said, some itching is normal.

Signs of an infection may include fever, erythema
(redness around the surgical site), swelling, excessive warmth around the surgical site, pain, drainage at the site and surrounding tissue.

Itching can also be a sign of healing. Check for infection but it may just be healing.
