I have had radiation for Hodgkins Lymphoma and one of the areas was in the groin area. since then when I urinate it burn my labia. I have talked with my oncologist and GP and dermitologist. They prescribed numerous ointments and saves to no avail. I had no problems prior to the radiation. What can I do to releive this or irradicate this problem?
PS
This problem has been going on for a year.

Have you tried desitin? It is used for diaper rash. The skin of the labia has been excoriated due to the radiation. The desitin will help heal the skin as well as offer a protective barrier from urine.
