I’ve just had my lovely bath - I think I must have soaked for about 90 mins! Dressings all gone and the wounds look probably as they shoul - not pretty but clean and not too pink. But can I use deo? I was too scared to try! And does it make a difference if it’s spray, roll on or solid?
Any advice welcome!

My BCN said roll on for delicate skin but not on the actual scar
Bath envy here!

Hi mac 66
I had lumpdecomy and lymph node removal, and it did leave it bout 3 weeks until i used anti [perpirsant it actually wasnt too bad i washed everything i wore every time, but maybe cause lymth removal you dont get the sweatiness i dont know. Now use Dove or Ganier without parabens roll ons. My friend whio has the BR gene told me she always uses paraben free ones,so so will i in future.june
Hi MAC
I used a deodorant, but not directly over the scar, from week two and haven’t had any problems. I tried Bionssen roll-on as that had been recommended as OK to use even during radiotherapy but it smells so horrible on me that I gave up on it and went back to my normal Sanex 0% (no perfume, aluminium or parabens).
Longing for the day that I can get back to using my lovely honey-scented bath products

Thanks everyone. Another thing on my shopping list. But you’re right, Catchpole, I’m definitely not as sweaty as I’d expect. Another unexpected bonus of this experience?!
