10 days post op of Arm Tuck. My arms are extremely itchy and red. The stitches are also bunched. Is this normal?

It's been itching like crazy and it's very red along and around the scars. My doctor put me on a&d, and I've been also using tricalm. It's still itching like the world is about to end. Please help!
