Hi all,
I have currently got folliculitis from chemo. My scalp feels sore and I have a rash on my face. I have been given some cream but it hasn't cleared up. Has anyone had this and has any tips?
That sounds very unpleasant. Have you rung the chemo unit and told them that the cream they've prescribed isn't working as they may be able to prescribe something else?

I did mention it and they gave given me more cream and told me to take antihistamines. I just wondered if anyone else had experience and some top tips.
