My incisions from ankle surgery have hit the itchy stage of healing and it's driving me crazy

Nothing is making the itching stop. The worst part is that the left side of my leg has nerve damage and is slightly numb from where a screw was put in, and the sensation extends to my knee. The feeling is very strange. Thankfully it's only the left side of my leg. The right side, that had the more extensive hardware put in, (2 tightrope devices) is totally fine in regards to nerves.

I can't wait until I'm fully recovered. This whole ordeal is the worst.

  • ahhh that was the worst part of my top surgery recovery. no pain but the itching was awful. it's amazing when it stops though, kinda like when you can finally breathe through your nose after a cold

    • I've had absolutely terrible pain with this recovery, but that's probably because I had holes drilled iny bones lol. The pain is easing up now, thankfully
