Experimental Treatment
Group I: Treatment with Dilute Sodium Hypochlorite solutionExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Subjects will be treated with the dilute bleach compresses daily (Monday through Friday) for the first 3 weeks of therapy. The bleach solution will be prepared and compresses applied for a 20 minute duration prior to radiation therapy. The compress can be applied within an hour of radiation therapy. Subjects will apply Aquaphor® ointment twice a day, once immediately after the radiation treatment and once in the evening. On days the experimental subjects do not receive radiation therapy, they will continue to moisturize their skin twice a day (AM and PM) with Aquaphor® ointment.
