My RT finished just over 2 weeks ago and I have some brown spots at the top of my inner thighs and also a stinging rash on one side. Wondering if this has been caused by the Radiation and what the best treatment is?

The radiotherapy exposure area is a band around your body from below naval down to just above top of penis, if treating prostate with standard external beam radiotherapy. Inner thighs would normally be outside this area, although some of the arse crack is included. It might be slightly different if treating other areas too.
