 What can you contribute yourself during radiation therapy leads to good compatibility?

The outpatient radiation therapy is well tolerated in general, but there are some points that you should consider in order to achieve optimum compatibility. Avoid extremes in the weeks of radiation: it is in your physical activity, be it in the diet. Sporting activity you do not need to avoid, but you must not overdo it. Discuss your wishes and ideas with your radiation therapist.He will also inform you about the possibilities for optimal nutrition. There are, however, different experiences and recommendations that may not be listed in detail at this point.

Visits to the sauna you should avoid in the coming weeks, as could potentially enhanced skin reactions occur. Otherwise, the motto is: They behave as always!
Cancer follow-up

For your further course of disease, it is particularly important that you are supported in conjunction with your urologist and your radiation therapist at regular intervals in the follow-up.The only way to ensure ultimately that a possible progression of your disease at an early stage and any necessary action can be taken quickly. If after your radiotherapy side effects occur, which happens relatively rarely, early detection and rapid treatment are often made possible by the follow-up care.
Follow-up treatment

Basically, you have both after radical surgery and after radiotherapy the right to take a so-called follow-up treatment to complete. This follow-up treatment, which is carried out in state-approved hospitals, offers you the opportunity to recover after several weeks of therapy from the physical and mental stress and possible acute reactions of therapy. If you wish to provide a follow-up treatment, tell her radiotherapists. This will give you the contact of the social services, who will organize this Kurmaßnahme for you.
