Biafine was working like a charm and then the 2 rts per day started. Biafine didn't touch this...neck is burnt badly, enough that there's seeping and some blood on the pillow and t shirt in the a.m. The stuff with lidocaine in it is giving him a lot of relief now....problem is we have to get it back off before the 2nd treatment. C'mon weekend...maybe not having to get it back off over the weekend will help some. 5 1/2 more days of this and RT is done. I will look at the other creams....have them written down for when we can just go home and deal with this without trying to take the stuff back off. Now that I've cut the necks out of numerous sweatshirts our weather is in the 50's......oh well, it's sure to drop again and he can't stay warm right now anyhow. Thanks for the tips everyone!
