  1. Hi, looking for some advice regarding scalp tightness and tenderness after chemotherapy, my treatment finished in April 2024 and my hair has grown and is now about 2inches all over although I have had a couple of trims from hairdresser.
  2. i am still having Herceptin injections plus daily Letrozole and Zolotronic acid infusions twice yearly.
  3. I am not sure if this is from the treatment or something entirely different.
  4. Thank you in advance 
  • Hi Skylark, I'm one of the community champions here in this group and I just picked up your post.   I don't recall any tightness when my hair grew back, but my scalp can be tender in places from time to time.  I'm also on letrozole and zoledronic acid.   Are you using any particular brands of shampoo or conditioner that might be impacting this?  Hope this eases for you soon, if not might be worth a chat with your GP.  Best wishes
