    Hello to all. I have developed a rash on the back of my left hand. I had my first treatment of radiotherapy on this hand in March.

    I would think it an allergic reaction type rash, with small reddened pimples which isn't exactly itchy but does sting a little.

    I can't think of anything I would use that would affect my left hand and not my right one. Has anyone else had anything like it after RT?

    Thanks

    Mary

    You can always telephone the number on the paper you were given if you had any questions about treatment. It sounds unusual but this stuff keeps working so whether that is normal or can otherwise be explained, it sounds like it's worth a call

    It's probably not related because the radiation wouldn't penatrate that far.

    Hi Issleib, sorry for the inconvenience with logging in! Name and password are case sensitive, maybe that's the problem? If it persists, please speak up again.

    Thanks to both. Not so worried now as it seems to have died down a bit. It must have been an allergy to something.

    I am a born worrier!

    Consider it a need to understand not a worry. Looking for undestanding is what has driven much progress in many fields
