My MIL just had a triple bypass last month. Her legs have been so sore from where they took the veinsand the dr has told her not to put any lotions on them up until this point. She said they are starting to itch now, and she thinks they are healing and hopefully can start using lotions without perfumes on them. Is there an A-------- product that would be good for helping with the healing, itching etc? Thanks!

I would say the skin conditioning oil to start and if she tolerates well add the rejuvenating cream. Has her incisions healed already?

Thanks! Her legs are healing...although I'm not sure if they're healed enough to start using anything on them. She goes to the dr today as it's been exactly one month since the surgery today. She just mentioned that they are starting to itch, and she thinks that's a good sign (they had to cut really deep in one leg to find a vein...didn't find one they could use, so they ended up having to cut the other leg, too. They look horrible...they're all black and blue)
