Hi I finished my Rads on 21st December and was doing fine untill about three weeks ago when my nipple became very sensative and sore at times. I had a few good days with it last week and then I think I had a set back, a yoga lesson!
It’s even sensative against cotton and looks very puffed up. I have been covering it with E45 cream in the hopes that it will settle. I am so fed up with not being able to wear a bra, I feel so cold all the time.
I had 5 boosters to it during the last week of Rads and was warned that it would be sensative, but it’s driving me mad.
I had bad burns after finishing my 15+5 rads at the end of November, which took around 4wks to heal fully - my rads team gave me some fab dressings/pads (Polymem) and was able to get more of them from GP. They look like a thin pink sponge thats impregnated with lotion, if your skin is weepy this activates the sponge or if not you can dab cool boiled water to activate. (Sorry to give the gory details!) Hopefully you can get some advice from your team.
