Skincare

About

Dry skin or acne can be side effects of different cancer drugs. Some cancer drugs also make skin more sensitive to sunlight. Certain drugs can cause a side effect called palmar-plantar or hand-foot syndrome, which affects the palms of the hands and soles of the feet. Nails might become brittle or discoloured. We would always encourage you to check with your specialist nurse before using skin creams and oils.
