Sounds about right, wait, but if you get concerned or just want to be reassured, call your doctor. Let 'em earn their keep.

I got lots of spots and itching around the incision. I think it was a combo of both the shaving and having it covered by a dressing. If in doubt check with your dr.

do you have tape or dressing covering it.  I never heard of it. Maybe it is something you ate? I told you to leave those peanut butter girl scout cookies alone!

I got a rash from the Tylenol with Codeine before the surgery.  Now still taking it at night to help with sleep/muscle tightness and no rash. go figure!  nothing like sending our bodies into a tailspin!
