Most Common Side Effects of Radiation Therapy. Skin reaction: A common side effect of radiation therapy is skin irritation in the area of the body that is being treated. The skin reaction can range from mild redness and dryness (similar to a sunburn) to severe peeling (desquamation) of the skin in some patients.
Radiotherapy can have side effects that occur both during and after the treatment. In the first weeks after beginning radiation therapy, you may notice reddening or swelling of the skin over the breast area and fatigue or tiredness. These problems usually disappear within 3 to 6 months. In the first 5 years after treatment, you may experience discomfort, pain, swelling, discolouration or other skin changes in the breast area. However, over 90% of women are satisfied with the appearance of the breast after lumpectomy and radiation treatment.
