I'm not at that point yet but try putting ice or something to sooth the itching and get a good lotion the more you scratch the worse the scars will be

It happens but dont scratch them, get some good lotion and rub them with that,,u dont want to break the skin and it get infected

I have tried coco butter, bio oil and e45 nothing helping much. I'll just keep lotioning up and try keep claws away Thanks

Vit e oil, maybe? Cocoa butter made my mom itch more. The vit e oil had me itch free all day.

Maybe pure lanolin?

Try aveeno it works wonders for itching and moisturizing

Palmers cocoa butter massage lotion for stretch marks helps a lot. Even on this insane sun burn I got today ugh

I bought johnsons body care.. deep hydrating extra drt skin lotion with a touch of oil to help relieve dry thirsty skin in one application. Its with the lotions in the cosmetic section in walmart. Its a light tan bottle.. works great when I use it and that touch of oil helps a ton!

And its only a few bucks!

I found mine at CVS, sure you can get it most anywhere.

I thought the Palmer massage lotion for stretch marks dried me out more. Like it had too much alcohol in it. I still like the tummy butter, I put it on top of the vit e oil. The vit e oil is working better than the Palmers cocoa butter oil.
