I used aquaphor from eucerin on my skin and it helps a lot. You might want to try it. I would just cake it on.

I used Biafine and it was wonderful but it can't be used on an open wound. It did clear up the redness from radiation better than Aquaphor or anything else they gave me. It was also prescription.

Take care,
Eileen

Congrads on getting though the treatment. But I agree with several others. The worst maybe yet to come. Marvin has just started to really improve in several areas this week. We are 9 weeks out. I think that thick mucus is finally past us(which was a big problem for him)he is starting to have a small amount of energy. He has set a time in his mind that he hopes to get back to work which is Aug 1. I think setting a goal has help him. Good luck.

CG for Marvin.
