Introduction to Radigard Gel
Radigard gel is used to treat radiodermatitis and hand-foot syndrome. Radiodermatitis is the most common side effect of radiotherapy. The symptoms of radiodermatitis vary between people and radiation doses. The symptoms are skin redness, swelling, dry and peeling skin, blisters, and ulcers. Hand-foot syndrome is a side effect of chemotherapy. The symptoms are numbness, tenderness, tingling, and swelling. In severe cases, patients might struggle to use their hands or walk. Radigard gel also treats peripheral neuropathy (pain and weakness in hands and feet due to damaged nerves) and diabetic neuropathy (a painful nervous disorder caused by diabetes) associated with cancer treatment.
