Kenneth Hughes, MD · Answer

Itching is fairly common after surgery.  If there is any sign of rash or allergic reaction, that would be something different.  My patients choose to wear a soft cotton t-shirt under the compression garment to lessen the itching.  Email or call your plastic surgeon for advice, or schedule a follow-up visit.Kenneth Hughes, MD, Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA

Not sure what your referring to when you describe boils. In any case your best course of action is to call your surgeon now and go see them ASAP for a checkup and treatment if needed. Best

Dear BobbiFy,I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment it would be difficult to determine what is wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment. Only after thorough examination you can get proper recommendations and advice.Daniel Barrett, MD

Hello dear!!
Thank you for the question and provided information as well.
You are still early in the healing process. At the stage you are in, itchiness is very normal. If you have any concerns, i suggest you follow up with your plastic surgeon.
Good luck :)
