This is my first post. My name is Cindy. I was diagnosed in June 2018 with Polymorphous Adenocarcinoma of the Retromolar Trigone Area (Low-Grade), however, there was a small amount of disease found in one lymph node, so it was staged at 3. I went along with a recommendation for radiation, but was uncertain whether it was the right course.

I am now two months out of active radiation treatment and am still struggling with a sore/mucocitis that is quite painful. There is some concern that it's an ulcer that could be more disease but as it does look a little better and the area was biopsied post surgery before radiation, I am hoping that it isn't that. My first post treatment scan is the end of February.

Any suggestions about how to heal mucocitis would be greatly appreciated. I'm very open to alternative/holistic remedies. Struggling.

Thanks in advance.
