Radiation burns how to treat
I am 9 days post radiation. I dont want to say too much here that will scare people who are about to start. But i have skin which has come off and is weeping. Anyone know if i can use an antiseptic...
Hi @FLClover, i was told not to rub the area but to let water fall over it. Having said that ive been dabbing saline wash with guaze a few times a day. The sore sticks to the combine gauze they gave me so i have to wash it off. I bought some better burns type dressing which doesnt stick readily. I have 2 very painful areas, middle chest and underarm. im living on painkillers. My whole chest is so tight and im having difficulty functioning. Praying it ends soon.
