Have had breast cancer surgery and radiotherapy this year, found lump Jan 2019, Got Lichen Sclerosis from radioactive dye injection and have now just got refered to hospital to have biopsy for vulva cancer taken yesterday. How do I keep the wound clean till the stitches dissolve?

  • Hi and a very warm welcome to the online community

    I'm sorry to hear that after dealing with breast cancer you've recently had a biopsy for vulva cancer.

    I see from your activity that you have already found and joined the vulva cancer group and I'm sure if you post your question there the ladies over there will be able to help you further. Clicking on the link I've created will take you directly to the group.

    Another way to get this information would be to give your CNS a ring and ask her advice.

    When you have a minute it would be really useful if could pop something about your journey so far into your profile as it helps others when answering or looking for someone with a similar diagnosis. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Edit Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.

    Wishing you all the best
