I have HPV throat cancer consisting of a tumor near my left tonsil plus some small lesions in my lymph nodes on the right side. I am at radiation treatment 18 today and just seeing radiation burns beginning on both sides of my throat. I am treating the burn with aquaphor.

My husband is going through the same thing you are......right now we are in 1 month remission. He had 7 weeks of radiation and 6 weeks of chemo X1 per week. I know what you are going through and hopefully I can give you some tips. We kept a bottle of aloe in the frig, when ithe burns got really bad he would squirt on hands and apply to the neck. He did use asphor quite a bit from the beginning to about a month after treatments. I’m not sure if this was good, but at the end of treatments he started keeping those in frig as well. I wish you all the best I. Your treatments. Yes it has to be hard but the reward is so great!
