Hi - I had 5 sessions of radiotherapy to my left breast a month ago. I am still swollen and blotchy but the skin is not broken. I use Aveeno constantly. How long do these side effects last? My review said side effects should  improve about 2 weeks post treatment but it seems to be coming and going still a month later.

  • Yes I found this too, I had some small blisters, redness and scabbing for about 4-6 weeks afterwards, hopefully it’ll improve soon, keep moisturising. All the best xx
