Chemo is burning my skin - help!
I'm hoping someone has some advice, I can't find any ideas to help with the sunburnt feeling the skin on my face is experiencing. I expected this with radio but not chemo!
Creams don't seem to help...
Hi Tara, I had this, too, when I started on Docetaxel. Unfortunately nothing much did help, although I did find that an antihistamine provided some relief sometimes. Give the nurse at your treatment hospital a call tomorrow & see what they suggest.
Oh, the other thing that provided some temporary relief was chilled aloe Vera gel.
Take care, Lyn.
