I had a port fitted on Monday not sure if I am allergic to the dressing as very itchy and still abit painful has anyone else had this issue
Hi Mich56
Have you got a number you could call to speak to your CNS?
I would be inclined to give them a call or possibly GP so it can be checked.
I have often had reactions to dressings and it maybe that they need to change for a different type.
