Redness

[Jgreen79 2]

I am red on my chest, my nose, my arms, and a little on my breasts. It is hot to the touch. Like a sunburn, no pain. I checked my temp it’s 99.5. I took a cool shower but body is still on fire.

Did you just have surgery yesterday? Are you still in the hospital? I turned red, but i was also itchy and the medical team said I was just having a sensitivity to the pain meds. However, with you also running a fever, it could be infection setting in and would be cause for alerting your surgeon IMHO

Yes I had surgery yesterday morning. I was released shortly after. I’m not itchy just hot to touch.

I'd talk to the doctor or nurse on call. Can't hurt. Good luck, hope it gets better soon.

99.5 is a slight fever for an adult. I would call your doctor or go to urgent care

Thank you. I just woke up and took my temperature it’s now 97.3. My body has cooled down some. Not so read either.
