Answer: Itching post op day 10 Itching is common and often a sign of healing. Be sure to check in with your surgeon so he or she can carefully evaluate things. There are a few causes of itching. At day 10 light rubbing (but not scratching) of the grafts is ok. The main goal now is to get the crust off. Soaking with baby oil for 10-15 minutea works well. Be sure to rinse well. A small amount of hydrocortisone is safe and can relieve itching for some. Check with your surgeon before starting. Finally antihistamines help some patients but can make drowsy. A careful and detailed discussion with your physician is needed before starting. All in all, gently massaging while shampooing is fine. Be sure to work hard day 8-14 to get crusts off.

Answer: 10 days from a hair transplant and I have itching I recommend that you never scratch the graft area as it will cause grafts to come out and introduce infection. The medications HPR + HydroGel work well and you can get the reference from your doctor.
