Why Should you be Aware of Deodorant Especially During Radiotherapy ?

Radiotherapy is one of the three treatment modalities used in the management of breast cancer. It consists of giving ionizing radiation to a certain area of the body – in the case of breast cancer it is given in the chest and armpit area. Because of the nature of the treatment, it is important to pay attention to the local skincare during and after radiotherapy. Using deodorant might pose a bigger issue than many cancer patients realise – as research has shown that the aluminium compounds used in conventional deodorants may be responsible for causing breast cancer. There are aluminium free deodorants available in the market like Ozalys Deodrant Cream.
