traditional skin care( the patients will receive the institutional standard skin care, which encompassed 3×/day application of topical, hydroactive colloid gel, from the first day of RT.
In case of a painful skin reaction and/or moist desquamation, a foam, absorbent, self-adhesive silicone dressing will be used.
Additionally, the patient will be advised to follow the general skin care guidelines (e.g., no tie, no electric shaving, no aftershave, gentle washing with or without mild soap, patting dry with a soft towel instead of rubbing
