Scar Management for anyone finding them taking a long time to heal, red, bumpy, itchy...

Hi @melclarity and @nikkid could you tell me how long after your surgery you started with the silicone and bio oil? I’m about 7 weeks post mastectomy and DIEP reconstruction and I’ve not healed yet. Have a few weeping spots on my tummy and a scab on my breast. The surgeon doesn’t seem concerned but they’re sore and haven’t improved since I had started chemo 2 weeks ago. Do I wait til it’s healed or will the silicone / bio oil help the healing?  Thank you.
