If you are having issues 13 months after surgery, it is best to contact your doctor.  It is not normal to have redness and buring sensation.

Sean Behnam, MD · Answer

At 13 months everything should be normal regarding your transplant. Talk to your doctor about what could be happening because that's incredibly unusual and mildly concerning- the latest anyone should have symptoms is a few months, so having them for over a year is a very long time.

William Woessner, MD · Answer

You have described chronic inflammation in your recipient area. You should, as soon as possible, see your most trusted physician and continue to follow up with that doctor until together you are able to find the cause and the s=best treatment for the inflammation. Don't skip around to different doctors for every visit. Stay with one doctor until you find relief.

I have 25 years experience and I have not heard of this complaint. I would seek out a good dermatologist and ask that doctor his/her thoughts
