I can recommend a couple of things that reduce inflammation from radiation, even long after the fact. One is lavender essential oil (the really pure stuff from Young Living). Another is niacin (the flush variety).

My brother had head-and-neck cancer in 2003. The radiation gave him a terrible sunburn at the time (we didn’t know that lavender oil would help with that) and it left him with three permanent side effects: a bald spot on his head, retinal damage on one side that eventually progressed to the loss of 40% of the visual field in that eye, and a carotid artery that completely closed down. Fortunately the last one happened so slowly that his body was able to grow new arteries around it — not a perfect solution, but it works ok.

More than 15 years later he started on niacin. Within a few months, his bald spot had grown back and his vision had recovered to normal. The carotid artery is still blocked, but he’s OK with that. Although his doctor wanted him to continue on statins, he recently quit the statins and is feeling much better both mentally and physically.
