Chemo rash

I would like to ask if a chemo rash can just go away by itself.  I am on Ribociclib, Denosumab and Exemastane.  I have a very itchy rash and it went away a bit when I had the week off from Ribociclib and had cortisone cream and piriton tablets.  Started new cycle on ribociclib and it has come back.  Will it go away on its own?  Thanks Lee.

  • Hello and thanks for posting,

    I can't say for sure, but most skin rash side effects that develop during cancer treatment will persist at varying degrees, until the treatment is paused/stopped or dose reduced.

    Do talk this over with your hospital treatment team.

    I hope that things go well for you moving forward.

    Best wishes,
