I have had a decompression on my right

turns out some of my internal stitches did
not dissolve, my scar has been reopened
and the stiches since removed, but I keep
have a real problem with the scar
continually itching, it drives me up the
wall at times , can you advise me.
Another, problem has started to arise with
my shoulder, it has started to lock, and I
have to hold my shoulder in place move my
arm alot, it then clicks back into place.
I have also since found out I have more
stiches that have not dissolved since my
op, which again will have to reopen once
more
the treatment I have had is for an accute
tendonitus in my right shoulder.
Nobody can me me an answer as to why my
scar looks very red, and is constantly
itching, please please try to give me

Hi. There are loads of things you can do
to help! Vitamin e oil is fantastic for
scars - apply to the area morning and
night and massage firmly. Aloe vera
juice taken internally will also help as
it promotes the renewal of tissues.
Aromatherapy oils mixed in with your
vitamin e oil, and used in the bath will
also help - best to visit a qualified
aromatherapist for face to face advice.
Reflexology would be great for the
internal scarring to release the tightness
of the developing scar tissue.
Hope this helps!
