Radiation Burns

Hi,

I am having radiation  now for Breast Cancer.  I just completed 27 full treatments and started today on the 7 boost treatments.  I am burned very bad,  It is under my breast, also under my arm.  It is so raw.  I was told by my radiation doctor to use Aquaphor and put it on very thick.  That is great but how long will it take to heal.  The last time I had a bra on was 7 days ago.  I do use ice packs on them at night. I lost a layer of skin.  I hurt on the time.
