Hi Everyone, after avoiding a peg etc and finishing chemoradiation a week ago I find my neck deteriorating although I am due to see Doctor tomorrow. Any hints or tips on your regimes appreciated as want to nip it in the bud. Have been using aqueous creme so far. From what I gather around about a week is usually a bit of a turning point? Thanks, G

    Neck burns

    Gary, towards the end I used the Silver Sulfadiazine Cream and the doctor also gave me something called Microklenz that I would spray on a couple of times a day and it helped as well.

    Keith Thanks buddy. Now enjoy that holiday that's an order! One of my tasks is is to look at holiday insurance which made me think of you and yours. Have a blast and hit that top shelf for me!

    The stuff Keith said works great

    Mine was called silvadine cream.  I had purple skin and  oozing lesions on my neck and they healed fast after using silvadine cream.  I sound like a commercial,

    PJ, thank you. Will have a look at UK equivalent. Just sore and scaly but want to address before it worsens. It is better to go into Dr informed. Some dressings have been mentioned also. Thank you again, G

    Gary, my neck was burned,

    Gary, my neck was burned, open, peeling and hurting, bad.  i used aquafor and it worked magic for me.  never had a problem once i started that.  i hope your neck doesn't get to bad. so glad you're all done with tx.

    God bless,
