Suggest Treatment For Periodic Itching After Leg Surgery

My daughter is 5 weeks post-op from arthroscopic ACL reconstruction and has periodic itching of her surgery leg. Not necessarily near any of the incision sites. All of her incision sites are healed. Is this a concern and what can be done to alleviate the itching?

Hi,

The itching on normal skin may be caused by various causes. Consult the dermatologist for the perfect examination and investigations to reach to the diagnosis. And then she may be treated properly.

Hope this helps.
