Radiation Burns...

Well, here is a photo of some of the burns I have from radiation treatment. With about 1 week of regular radiation to go, there are some areas where my skin is breaking down (armpit--ouch!) It is a bit painful in some spots, but nothing unmanageable!

  1. Hi Tory:

    I see that your neck area looks red from radiation. Was your tumor in the upper inner breast quadrant? Did anyone mention wearing a thyroid collar around the neck area to protect the thyroid gland? I am about to start radiation treatments and skin burns are a big concern of mine.
