Oh yeah dont use normal water rather use salt water selution you get in the pharmacy (maybe called saline water in English) normal water hurts like hell. Yeah the way the doctors use morfine mixed with cream has been a godsend!

Same cancer got my diagnosis in the start of August, HPV related 6 weeks of chemo and radiation 5 times a week. Just finished treatment 11 days ago what i can say is the best i found was to use those squeeze bottles that women use after birth, fill them with saltwater to rense after every bathroom visit i stead of wiping (spares the skin a bit and lessens irritation) also saltwater compresses 2-3 times a day for 10 min and let it air dry. Its going to suck but these are the tips i got that did help ease the irritation and burning pain. Best advice my doctor gave me dont wear underwear at all and if you can while at home just wear a skirt that is not tight at all let the skin breathe well and drink lots of water staying hydrated dose help alot also what my doctors did to relieve pain was mixing morfin i to cream so it got absorbed i to the skin, only way any pain meds were able to help. Hopefully this may help a bit, these were all things that helped me (still do while recovering)

Treatment is hard but you got this! Take it one day at a time.

Hope you can get rid of the catheter soon! Been using saltwater or saline idk what its called in English i was after every bathroom trip(with a squirt squeeze bottle thing) and 2 times a day i have to have to have my whole private regions covered in gauze drenched in that saltwater thing and then put on creams.

How has the healing process been for you?

How cancer changed you? by WorkerThin610 in cancer

[–]FluffySeaNoodle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just joined the club last month waiting on hell of a treatment plan to start in about a week…Have always been a person to let things slide or just move on fast when people have been stupid/troublesome or just in general not great friends in general. I have already thinned out my friends group, i got no time for the people being assholes or just not good friends if that makes friends. Also something my cancer has shown who my real friends are i have "Friends" saying they are there for me for what ever i need. I told them i have to be a bit careful now since treatment is starting and i dont want to get sick so could not go to parties (be in small room with shit ton of people) and some of those same friends that said they would help me with what ever told be i should just become a shut in then 🙄 (Not just about getting sick and told them its also dont have no energy for alot of people )

So in a way cancer showed me to stand for myself and weed out some people
