Staples have been out for a week now. Things are looking good.I have been using lotion & Vit E..the same as last time. I was just concerned how radiation will effect it (if it does)

Christine...the shower cap was a shampoo cap. I didn't take a shower after surgery until the staples were out. The shampoo cap is like a dry cap it just dampens your hair and for the body I just got nin the tub with a little ater.

Thanks again everyone!
