I have never heard of a reaction like that from radiation therapy, but
ask her doctor about the effects of chemotherapy. Sometimes chemotherapy
can erode the mucous membranes, including the mouth and throat. I am not
a doctor, but I have heard of this reactoin from certain types of chemo.
Check it out. LisaFix
