Scars itching!!!

Has anyone received a name of a good lotion/cream to use on their stomachs and incisions? I've tried several different things and my stomach and scars itch like crazy. My husband said I look like a monkey at times... I really don't want to call the surgeon's office and was hoping someone else might be experiencing the same thing. Thanks, Michele

Hey Michele... Mine itches quite a bit too!! AND.. It's keloid and RED!! UGLY My dermatologist suggested Mederma and even gave me samples/coupons for it and I mentioned to him that i've been using cocoa butter and he said that was a good choice because it keeps it moisturized. I am seeing him again on the 7th and am going to question him about it once more, if I hear of anything good to use on it I'll let ya know!! Another itching monkey hehe! Tracy

I would just use some good baby oil or vasiline............ Lotions have alcohol in them that is a dring agent............. You go in the store and you will not find a lotion with out alcohol in it! Baby oil and vasiline don;t have alcohol in it............. When you skin is dry it itches more!

I have been using "emu oil". I found it at some swap meet and it is supposed to help with scars too. It keeps the skin moistened and it only takes a very little amount. It comes in a straight oil and then in cream form which is what I use.
