I am just 1 day PO but I am itchy everywhere. It may some of the meds or just dry skin. I am especially itchy on the sides of my boobs.

I am almost 5 weeks post op. You will see that the first 4 weeks are filled with itchy/numbness/intense sesitivity. It will get better. Use Hylands Muscle Gel with Arnica that you can get from Whole Foods. It works wonders. Also lots of ice and nice hot baths. Might want to try wearing a 100% cotton tank top under your bra....keeps the bra off the skin. I promise, time is your friend. I never thought it would get better and it's finally starting to feel like I'm not focused on my boobs. Thank God!! Take Care.

Mine dont itch they just feel sunburned...like the worst sunburn of my life!! I put on lotion and it helps

Yes, I had that. I think it's more the nerves regenerating than the actual skin itching. Kinda like that pins & needles feeling when your arm falls asleep or something. It will get better. *hugs*
