Broken skin

I finished Radiotherapy 19 days ago. 10 days after the end of the treatment my skin started to break on the crease and around after I use some medical tape to secure a dressing. I have been given some activheal hydrogen and some polymem dressing 3 days ago. I was wondering if anybody has had the same issues and can tell me how long it took for their skin to heal. The soreness keeps me awake at night and I can't resume sea swimming until it is healed. It is a vicious circle as I now feel knackered and down as no swimming just as I was started to perk up last week. Thanks for considering.

  • My skin broke underneath my breast but it healed quite quickly .  I was given flamazine cream to clear up any infection.  I used a panty liner to stop my bra pressing on it.
