What Causes Itchy Rashes On Hands And Knees Post Knee Replacement Surgery?
I had total knee replacement, 2nd time, in October, 2015. Did very well after PT and then about 3 weeks ago I started having alot of pain again. About 4-5 days ago I started getting a rash and itching on my hands and now it is on both knees. (In 2006, I had bi-lateral surgery on my knees.)

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is the knee replacement then pain would be very likely condition and the only option is to have the analgesic, for the rash it could be due to some reactive phenomenon and it can be managed with long acting antihistamine as Tab Loratadine three times in day, hope this information helps.
