Blisters????

I am one week today and had used a heating pad to help with the gas pain. The next morning I got up with two huge blisters on my belly. Not on the incision, a couple of inches above but they are huge blisters. Never had anything like that happen. Any ideas?

Hi Sister
I had a few blisters too, but these were above the incision and near to the micro pore tape, which held the dressing on. The Dr said that I had an allergy to the micropore tape , not good with the incision staples and a few butterfly tape stiches too ! But get it checked out by your Dr too, it may be the heat pack has caused the blistering to your tummy
An ice pack helped with swelling and the pain, but be careful
Take care

Hi there! Please check with your doc about this. I'm sure it's probably fine, but it's unusual enough that you should really check into it.

Feel better soon!
