Tender tiny "bump" where ear joins face, slightly red and warm. Can't find anything on this so may not be related to my treatment at all. Woke up today after a brilliant night's sleep to find my face as red as a beetroot but no temperature?
Hi Hereford
You don't say what type of treatment you're having but if it's chemotherapy can I recommend that you contact the chemo suite straight away to tell them about your bump and face. It might be an allergic reaction.
Thank you for your reply, much appreciated. I'm having chemo for breast cancer. I will go with your suggestion, thanks again
