Hi nonkyboy
I used something different as recommended by my radiation oncologist. It was a new gel - Strata XRT - available on line. It has been developed especially to protect against radiation burns. A 50g tube is not cheap but lasted me for 30 treatments -you apply it daily after showering to the radiated area in a very thin layer, let it dry and then dress - it forms a protective barrier for the skin. I found it a godsend!
