Painful Sores, Itchiness, Scars. C Section Done. Any Treatment For The Marks?
I had a C-section 6 months ago for my last baby. i developed itchiness all over my body since then. and after 6 months the itchiness has subsided except for my lower back. I have scars or black marks from the sores developed from all the scratching. this marks then to itch bad thus developing and has turned into very painful sores. And when sores dried up I am left with terrible black marks. How can I get rid of the marks? note also that I have sore marks on my both my calf and it's very unsightly. I need your help!
