Excessive itching post-op 6 months mastoplexy?

bettyrk
I had abdominoplasty/lipo/ mastoplexy on May 31. No complications, normal recovery. Lately my incision scars on my breasts are itching like crazy. It's driving me insane. It's both breasts and every part of the incisions, including the nipple area. Is there anything I can do? Will it go away? Does this sound normal? I don't even want to wear a bra because it's makes the itching worse.
