help - radiation burns

Just posted about these on another thread - but I didn’t have blistering etc only bad soreness. My nurse prescribed me ActiFormCool gel sheets. The bumpf on the leaflet says this:

‘actiform is a non adhesive high water content hydrogel product. Dressing is a 2 sided transparent hydrogel formed around a supporting polyethylene matrix. Gel is permeable to water vapour, gases and small protein molecules but impermeable to bacteria.’

The science bit…

‘to manage nociceptive wound pain, to assist in autolytic debRidement by hydration of necrotic and sloughy tissue and for absorption of exudate. Suitable on painful wounds…radiation therapy damage.’

There’s lot more - I’ve found the really good. I know they are expensive cos nurse told me , not sure if you can buy them I got mine on script.

hi ladies , how are we all ? well am on my jollies and so chilled its wonderful , weather has been beautiful so slapped on the factor 50 on affected side plus a cotton hankie over any exposed bits , thankfully the fuciden seems to have worked and although im peeling it isnt sore at all , i`m hoping i am through the worst now as the redness seems to be subsiding , still putting on the aqueous cream and will continue to do so for a while i think , i had a lovely birthday thank you , got spoilt but i reckon i deserved it after my little journey xx
