I used fresh aloe vera and had no burn until a few days after the radiation was complete. Probably because I stopped using aloe vera right after the last treatment instead of continuing for a bit longer. It wasn’t so bad. I had 20 treatments total. Whatever cream you decide to use, make sure you use it right after each treatment and maybe several times a day and continue for at least a week after the last one. My hat is off to you. I’m so afraid of surgery that i went for lumpectomy instead. Wish you all the best.
