4 days agoI’m 11 radiation treatments in and today my chest and underarm broke out in hot, prickly radiation dermatitis. What have you tried that soothed the rash and itch, especially under my arm where lymph nodes were removed? Thank you.

4 days agoRadiation dermatitis can be really uncomfortable, and it's understandable to seek relief for the burning and itching sensations. Many people in this community have found gentle, fragrance-free moisturizers, cool compresses, and loose-fitting clothing helpful for managing skin irritation during radiation treatment. It's worth discussing specific products and care strategies with your radiation oncology team, as they often have the best recommendations for your particular treatment area and can ensure any remedies won't interfere with your therapy.
