Gadget that shines bright red LEDs to mend cancer scars now being used to treat debilitating scarring and swelling in the mouth caused by radiotherapy
A ‘Lollipop’ gadget that emits red light is being used to treat debilitating scarring and swelling in the mouth caused by radiotherapy cancer treatment.
The device’s light-emitting diodes (LEDs) can repair damaged tissue, calm the body’s response to injury and reduce inflammation – and patients simply need to pop it in their mouth for a few minutes to feel the benefits.
