When I first had 30 Radiotherapy sessions back in 2021 I came across a product that sounded to be just right for treating RT burns. It had been developed by a company that specialised in burn first aid for first responders. The company had ceased trading but were kind enough to supply me with their product. It was a Godsend. I went through the treatment with hardly more that a little redness that was nothing compared to the damage that I saw in other patients going through the treatment. I was on the company's mailing list and I have now been informed of a re-launch of the product. My experience with it was fantastic so I thought I would share it with you all.
Many of you may have heard of this product as it received great reviews.

Thanks Brian.
I too was quite lucky with reaction. Just a little red and flakey. I used Aloe Vera Gel straight after radiotherapy.
I found a research paper on this and the conclusion was
Conclusion: Topical skin treatment with the R1 and R2 system has been shown to be effective in preventing, reducing the onset, and reducing the degree (grade) of radiation dermatitis in head and neck and breast cancer patients treated with chemoradiation.
So it looks like it's worth looking into
