What Is The Cause For Burning,itching And Swelling After A Gallbladder Surgery?
Hi last thursday i had gallbladder surgery and i had a catheter put in during surgery. Well ever since i came home i have noticed a burning, itching, swelling and slight disharge in that area. I thought at first it was just irritated from the catheter but its been 6 days now and its still bothering me. Any idea what it could be.?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, this could be allergic condition due to the catheter and may be infected too, I would advise you to take the following medicine for this,
1) Beclomethasone with Neomycin oint. apply this on affected part three times in day
hope this information helps if this fails to respond then you have to see the surgeon for clinical examination, take care and have good day.
