Radiation
Hi all,
i am a week into radiation, only 28 to go ! & would love hints & tips from others who have been there done that,
someone advised me to use Moogoo, which I am doing,
anything else ?
...
I used a fragrance free soap to shower with and applied Sorbolene cream 3 times a day. I found it better to go bra less as often as possible and pat area dry don't rub!! I too got itchy and the nurse told me to used a litre of boiled water, allowed to cool with a teaspoon of salt. I kept this in the fridge and then soaked a flannel and held it on the spot. I was lucky in that I didn't burn too much but it still took about three weeks for redness to go.
best of luck.
