Suggest Medication To Alleviate Itching Do Back A Surgical Incision
I am on a wound vac and am having rashes develop under and near the drape materials. I also am on Tramadol and notice the side effects include rashes. I must continue with the wound vac to help a back surgical incision close/heal, since the original operation was last july. Any suggestions to alleviate the itching, My back looks like I m being skinned alive. I have never tolerated adhesives even as a child.
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
I suggest using antihistamine such as cetirizine 10 mg to release the itching. I also suggest using a steroid cream for local application.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
