ITCHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hopefully someone on here can help me, okay I know that there is no help for me. Well I am about a year out from my surgery and lost 125 pounds. My stomach and back is itching so bad that I scratch till it about bleeds.Does anyone have any suggestions? Please Help I am going crazy!

I am having the same issues at 5 mo out everywhere there is loose skin going to see the dermotologist next week will let you know what he says. Right now I'm doing benydryl and hydrocortisone cream

Oct 10, 2012 was my surgery. from new yrs wknd till now, I lost 60 lbs. 37 before surgery n 23 after surgery. I have the itchy skin as well. it drives me nuts. It bugs me more at nite. Legs, arms, belly, back n face. I haven't found anything that works for me. I have an allergy to a chemical in hair n skin products so I have to watch what I use.

Probably a lack of fat in your diet. Dry skin and hair is VERY common early out when people are consuming almost no fat.

Have you tried using a small amount of baby oil?

You may not be getting enough fat in your diet.

Have you tried a medicated lotion like Gold Bond? What about using a small amount of baby oil on your skin while you are still wet after your bath/shower?
