Frequently Asked Questions

Radiation therapy is a medical treatment that uses ionizing radiation to destroy cancer cells and shrink tumors. It works by damaging the DNA of cancer cells, preventing them from growing and reproducing.

The side effects of radiation therapy can vary depending on the area being treated, but the most common ones include fatigue, skin irritation, temporary hair loss, and digestive problems. These effects are usually temporary and go away after treatment.

The number of radiation therapy sessions required depends on the type and stage of the cancer, as well as the patient's individual response to treatment. Typically, several sessions are scheduled over a period of several weeks to ensure the treatment is effective.

Radiation therapy itself is not painful, as the radiation cannot be felt. However, some patients may experience discomfort or a sensation of heat during the procedure. The medical team will work to minimize any discomfort and provide support throughout the process.

During radiation therapy, it is important to follow the medical team’s instructions. Some common precautions include avoiding sun exposure on the treated area, staying well-hydrated, avoiding the use of skin irritants, and eating a healthy diet to help the body recover.
