Severe itching 18 months post op facelift

October 13, 2017
Asked By:maypot in Victoria, BC

I had a facelift 18 months ago and I have severe itching around my ears and earlobes. Its bad enough that I feel like scratching my ears off. I have tried bio oil thinking my skin could be just dry but to no avail. I also have tiny lumps at the base of my earlobes. Is this itching normal for 18 months post op and what can these little lumps be at the base of my earlobe?
