ok, this isnt another question wondering if my scar will go away or my tummy will shrink. idc about those really. and i'm not sure where to put this question. but here's my situation. obviously my csection scar is in a "low lying area" and when i work out and i get hot it ITCHES SOOO BAD!! so if i scratch it, it looks like i'm scratching my lady business in public. not cute. or polite. but i dont know how to not make it itch. am i the only one with this issue?? if it happens to you, PLEASE tell me how to make it stop!! =) thanks!

    Don't have any scars or itches, so I may not be much help.... but what about applying Gold Bold anti-itch creams or powders before working out???

    Good Luck!

    it doesn't happen to me, I've had two. But you can alleviate the start up and continuing itch with cortisone cream or ointment, its sold over counter and its only 1% cnrtisone.

    Mine itched for a while. It stopped itching after continued exercise.

    My scars get itchy sometimes when they get dry. I don't have c-section scars, but perhaps lotion of vitamin E oils applied directly to it beforehand will help.

    I get the burning around the surrounding scar after doing GHD sit ups or weighted sit ups, itching not so much. I don't have any "feeling" along the incision, but accidently sit on it I hit the roof.

    I use a little baby powder with cornstarch after shower....
