Hi there,

I just finished my radiation today and I have deep burns all over my neck. There are 2 areas in particular that are open. One area is like a deep cut and the other is like a large round open wound. I have biofene and aquaphor but didn't know how best to treat the open wounds? I can also smell an odor coming from the large cut one. Any suggestions? I'm not sure if it's best to cover with gauze or let the air heal it?
