Iam receiving 35vdays radio therapy for prostate cancer, also hormone injections. I am 80 years of age and yesterday received my 27th treatment. Side effects have been minimull tiredness being the worst. After yesterday treatment my rectum is extremely sore and feels very raw. Difficulty urinating has become worse, producing the urge every couple of hours but producing very little and very slow. I have not have the urge to poo but very little comes out. I have piles which have become more troublesome. When I mention these things to the radiographers, they all say it's side effects and I wondered if you can suggest any crem that could help, I have a gell which I think is steroid gell but only to be used occasionally. It does seem to help with my very sore rectum. Thank you
