What should I do if my face turns dark after radiotherapy for nasopharyngeal cancer?

Skin pigmentation is a common skin reaction after nasopharyngeal carcinoma treatment, which generally does not require special treatment. If accompanied by skin damage, peeling and other problems, it is necessary to keep the skin dry and avoid infection.

Depending on the severity of the skin reaction, it can be recovered in one to three months after radiotherapy stops. After radiotherapy stops, the symptoms will gradually improve. You can apply some aloe vera gel to wash your face, and try not to rub it hard, which can easily cause damage to worsen. After radiotherapy, cancer patients will experience symptoms of darkening of the skin.
