I had a gastric band put on back in August of 2009. To date I have lost around 50 pounds which I am very happy about. However now my skin around my stomach looks horrible and I get a severe rash under the lowest portion of my stomach that itches and smells horrible.
What can be done to help alleviate this? It is something I will probably have to live with as insurance does not cover tummy-tucks which is fine with me. The weight loss is most important as I want to have a longer life. Any suggestions?

The number one thing to do is to keep that area dry. Use a hair blower after you bathe. Use corn starch not powder. Also, it is related to a "jock itch" so get the cream from the dollar store. If all that doesn't work, call your doctor and ask for a prescription for - Nystop, a powder or Nystatin, a cream. Good luck.
I would talk o your doctor, to be sure you do not have soem type of an infection, any type of a rash that smells should be checked out.
