I finished my 15 sessions of radiotherapy a week ago.
The areola around my nipple is pinkish and a little itchy as is my actial nipple. I have been using Aveeno through my treatment but it doesnt seem to help with my sore nipple.
can i use sudocrem on my nipple ? Cant use anything with lanolin in.
any advice will be greatly received. Thank you .
Hi
It may be worth asking the radiotherapy team. When I was sore, they gave me some lovely cream which was honey based ( sorry, cant remember the name).
Try posting in the radiotherapy section, in the Going through treatment thread. I’m sure there will be ladies on there who can help xx
Just a thought but have you tried Nipple Cream that new mum’s use when breast-feeding?
I’d reccomend Calendula cream and Aloe Vera. As natural as possible. Drink plenty of fluids and eat well if you can. Hope it clears up.
I think you should as your GP.
