Random rash?

Question

I’m 12 days postpartum. I had an allergic reaction to my epidural and my back was covered in a rash of hives and blisters. That has cleared up as of Monday. Well yesterday I was uncontrollably itchy all over (face, legs, arms, belly, etc.) today I noticed I have now developed a rash throughout the rest of my body which is totally unrelated to my previous rash. I would say maybe an allergic reaction to something else, but I have seriously not changed a thing. Has anyone else experienced this? Should I call my doctor, or just leave it be?

Answer

I got EXTREMELY Itchy from the block from my c section the nurses said it’s a side effect of it being absorbed in my body I guess. However I never got a rash but I’m still itchy on my face and parts of my legs. my doctor said it happens and should go away... I’m 6 weeks pp now 🤷‍♀️￼

Answer

Same thing happened to me.. my back was extremely irritated and my doctor said it was probably from the tape the put on my back for the epidural. I had to use an exfoliating scrub on my back 2-3 times a week and eventually it went away. Not sure why you would be itching all over now though unless something else triggered your allergies.. I’d definitely call your doctor.
