Healing

Hi my name is Sue.

When I was informed that I have AIN3 I breathed a sigh of relief. I decided that I was 'lucky' as things could have been far worse. I still do.

Having undergone a second session of laser ablation in May I was wondering if it is normal to be taking longer to heal this time around? Taking salt baths daily as directed. As my perineum is the affected site it is in an awkward area.

I just wanted to ask if other people have experienced this and is there anything else I could do to relieve local discomfort and promote healing of area?

Many thanks.

  • Hi Sue,

    I don't have experience of laser treatment, as I'm currently undergoing chemoradiotherapy, but I have been given a steroid gel, plus a cooling gel I mix with lidocaine gel to ease the soreness and aid healing... might be worth a mention to your team to see if it's an option for you. I hope you are back to your old self soon!
