Burning skin after radiation

Try Vit E cream also. I use a combo of Vit E cream and Aveeno intense night time cream.

My routine right after rads was Aloe in the am (before my shower) Vit E cream mid day and Aveeno at night

Good Luck

I had a BMX, had 28 with bolus and boosts.  I did great during radiation, it was 5 days later when the skin began hurting, peeling, oozing and blistering.  I was told to continue using aloe, creams and hydrocortizone for the areas that weren't open and oozing.  I found the hydrocortizone to give me the most relief.  Then once the skin opened I went in to have it cleaned daily and also cleaned it at home - the mixture was peroxide and water 50/50.  It actually felt good to clean the area with room temp - cool water.  During that process the nurse and/or me would remove some of the skin.  I'm not sure if your center has this, but they gave me these wonderful pads that stuck to the open wounds and absorbed the moisture, but did not hurt when removed - they are made specifically for radiation wounds.  They couldn't give me a prescription for them, but they were able to give me a few each time I went in to have it cleaned.  She said they're much better than gause or non-stick pads.  In all honesty, I did so well through radiation that the pain caught me off guard 5 days later.   I also took medication for pain for about 5 days during that time. 

I was told radiation to areas where there is no breast tissue is more painful b/c there is no breast tissue to absorb the radiation. 

I hope you feel better soon.

Also with the Vit E and Aveeno my skin is 99% back to normal and I am 30 days out from treatment. My chest is back to the original color and my neck still has a "tanned" area- but it reacted the worst.
