Rash one week after gallbladder surgery

@lyles56 - I had a similar experience after prolapse surgery. It was because I got a UTI after surgery and was prescribed nitrofurantoin monohydrate/macrocrystals (Macrobid), which evidently I react to with a terrible rash. In my situation, I reported it and the doctor changed me to another prescription.

@lisalucier Thank you for responding. Oh wow! I think it’s the tape on the incisions that’s causing it or the antiseptic they used on my skin but could be the meds I took so I don’t know. Still waiting to hear back from the doctor.
