TT scar itching!!

Ugh, I'm 10-11 weeks post surgery and just this week my TT scar started itching A LOT. Anyone else had this? I'm afraid to put anything on it in fear that it will make the itching worse!

Yes, I agree with red poster above!  It's healing!!  The internal stitches take 6+ weeks to disolve!

Good! It's healing! Unfortunately that's often what the skin does... itch! Just means all the nerve endings are joining back up and that's often the itch you feel.
I had it both times and I occaisonally still get it nearly two years on. Especially when I wear a t-shirt that sits right on it.
Just use some oil or even calamine lotion! It will be annoying but it will go away.
Cheers!
