I had a friend who used the manuka to put on his radiation neck burns and it helped. I'm blessed in that my skin didn't suffer too badly from the rads but the manuka also helped me get through most of my rads before I needed pain meds etc...

My friend used to put dollops of the honey on tin foil, freeze them then peel the off and put them on the spot and cover with a bandage, worked like a charm he said. Hugs.
