I used Benadryl cream. It helped.

Don’t scratch at them. Put lotion on them. It’s the healing process that’s making it itch.

Think your healing. Annoying but a good thing! I used anti itch cream

I'm using Bio-Oil on mine and it keeps them lubricated and so they don't itch and also it'll minimize the scarring.

I agree with@GradyCat, Bio oil helped me so i continued with it all over my tummy. Can barely see my scars now. itching has stopped.

Mine are sometimes itchy. I just kind of gently scratch around it.

It's part of the healing process. I itched the area around the actual incision. It's annoying but shortlived!

[othella 20]

The redness??

Othella, mine were pretty red, not spreading and my Dr said they were fine. This was at 15 days out.

[othella 20]
