Radiation Burns Two Weeks Out
This is really really painful. This picture is 2 weeks from the last radiation treatment (post double mastectomy). Is this normal?

Gwydiana, it took me 2 weeks to slough offall that damage and get the new skin going. I kept putting the silvadene and using domoborough soaks. I. Was. Miserable. It gets better just know that. Accept any and all help anyone offers. I am so independent that it finally broke me and I accepted help bringing meals. It's just me so anything was appreciated. Be strong

yes, that’s normal. Mine looked similar. It does get better. I can’t see anything two years later.

Thank you all for the help! I'm still struggling to get through the pain but it seems to be slowly getting better.
