Side Effects of Radiation Therapy. Radiation therapy has some side effects. Some begin during treatment, while others may occur months or even years later. Most often, side effects from radiation therapy begin within a few weeks of starting treatment and go away within a few weeks after treatment ends [15]. During and just after treatment, your treated breast may be sore.
Late Effects of Radiation Therapy. Radiation therapy is applied to the areas of the body that are affected by cancer. Aftereffects occur only in the area that was treated. In some cases, treatment may also include healthy tissue. This is to make certain that all of the cancer is treated. Newer methods of radiation therapy help minimize damage to normal tissue. Treatment is directed to the same area each time. Yet, radiation rays sometimes scatter. Tissues and organs near the cancer site might receive small doses of radiation if this happens. Late effects of radiation could include: Cataracts. Fatigue. Dry mouth. Permanent hair loss. Problems with thyroid or adrenal glands.
