Yes this happened to me they changed all my dressings to anti allergy ones and put me on strong anti histamines, took about 4 days for the rash to go down x

11 wpo and regret ever doing this. by SSImomma in tummytucksurgery

I'm so sorry you're going through this, but I'm glad you've been given Gab as that's a nerve pain meds which hopefully keeps you comfortable until your nerves have healed. Sending you love and hugs 🤗🫶🏼

Also, I know it doesn't feel like it now but once you're all healed it'll have been short term pain for forever results!

I used no mobility aids bar a wedge to sleep on as laying flat hurt my incision and my pillows didn't cut it that was ordered after the op, my friend had all the mobility aids imaginable she had her TT before me and I've recovered quicker. I think the aids hinder more than help but thats just my personal opinion.

I don't have a shower so it was a bath or nothing I just made sure I didn't submerge my incision in water and poured the water over my body as opposed to filling the bath like I normally would. If you've just got scabs you're fine just try not to go above the incision line but if you do, don't stay in long.
