The attached pics are of a 55-year female patient’s chest right side. She had CA Breast with was removed by MRM in April this year. Later on, six-sessions of chemotherapy(21st Jun, to 5th Oct.) and 15 sessions of Radiotherapy(10th Nov. to 2nd Dec.) were administered to her at NORI hospital, Islamabad. After radiotherapy, the localized skin where radiation was done, became dark colored and then started tearing /falling off; leaving exposed lower skin. The Consultant Oncologist of NORI prescribed Hydrocortisone Cream application. The effected area is increasing day-by-day and now it develops pain /irritation time-to-time; which is becoming more painful sometime. Previously she was diagnosed CA Breast on left side 10 years back and it was removed by MRM. Chemotherapy and radiotherapy were also carried out. She was on oral medicine during these 10 years. Your opinion prescription is solicited please for treatment of this exposed / being exposed skin due to radiotherapy.
