Sir. I am a hodgkin lymphoma patient. Finished chemo ABVD in feb 17 and radiation therapy on 4th apr 17. I have some side effects from radiation like no taste in mouth, having bad breadth, and excessive saliva in the mouth. Please advice how to reduce these.

radiation gives rise to glossitis i.e. inflammation of tongue. Frequent mouth wash and cleaning with TONGUE CLEANER.

DEAR RAZA, NOW YOUR TREATMENT FOR LYMPHOMA IS OVER. SOME SIDE EFFECTS POST CHEMOTHERAPY AND RADIOTHERAPY DO OCCUR AND PERSOST FOR SOME TIME. HAVE GOOD FOOD, FRUITS AND JUICES, SLOWLY ALL YOUR PROBLEMS WILL VANISH. SEE THAT YOU ARE HAVING GOOD MOTIONS. IF YOU SMOKE OR USE PAAM MASALA DOS CONTINUE IT. BREATH FRESH EVERY THING WOLL COME TO NORMAL.
