Red marks have appearred approx 2 1/2 weeks after completing my 20 RT sessions

Hello GaryW 

Thank you for posting. I am aware that this can happen and if you still have the issue on Monday, give your Radiotherapy Team a ring. They do have some cream they can prescribe (I can't for the life of me remember what it's called!!) .

As you say it's clearing up, so let's hope everything will be fine.

Best wishes - Brian.

Hi GaryW, it doesn’t sound like too much of a problem to me considering the treatment, although I would check that the swelling doesn’t get any worse.

If talc is working, great, but I remember reading that talc can aggravate itching, so maybe an unscented lotion would be an option. David   

Hi GaryW.

Good morning and welcome it's great to meet you today.

Yes I had my Radiotherapy last week just one shot and they did tell me that I might get redness around the area where the Radiotherapy was focused.

But to date I haven't experienced any the only thing that I have noticed is increased pain that seems to be subsiding thankfully.

I do hope that things settle down for you soon!!!!
