Hi Lisa, it still itches now and then and I get occasional fungal infections in it. I'm lucky I healed really fast after the surgery unlike many women but it does seem a long time to be still getting the odd issue with it. Conor will be 3 next month. Interestingly I know lots of women who have screaming pain or burning in their scars years after the surgery when doing emotional healing work. How much more complex are humans than it would seem?!
