@Chris51 my treated area got a lot worse after treatment finished. It was starting to ramp up during the last week and then went wild after rads were over. The nurse predicted I would feel a whole lot better at the 3 week post treatment mark. She was spot on! The difference between one week and the next was amazing. I was fretting it was going to get worse and more painful and then, it just started healing quite quickly. Keep up with the creams. I was also given Cuticerin strips and non woven Combine roll by the rad nurses to place over the wound. Another product I found extremely helpful was silicon based Mepilex Border Flex "band-aids". They are hideously expensive but can stay on for a few days. My skin reacts terribly to normal band-aids but with the silicon I had no reaction at all. Best wishes to you.
