Started after my 2nd chemo and seems to be a permanent side effect. Lymphoma treatment came with a number of unexpected side effects for me, including a runny nose You probably know that cancer treatment can cause side effects like nausea, fatigue and hair loss Is there anything i can do about side effects from my last chemo session of continually watering eyes and runny nose I had both following previous sessions but Chemotherapy drugs can cause irritation and inflammation of the nasal passages, leading to a runny nose radiation therapy can also cause inflammation and damage to the nasal tissues
Additionally, certain types of cancer, such as nasal or sinus cancers, can cause a runny nose as a symptom. Runny nose a runny nose is a defense mechanism of your nose and immune system that occurs when your nasal passages are attempting to clear away viruses, bacteria or particles A runny nose can lead to rhinitis Rhinitis is a swelling and irritation of your nasal passages, resulting from symptoms of a runny nose, itching of the nose, throat or eyes Watery eyes, known medically as epiphora, is a symptom experienced by cancer patients and survivors alike I know exactly how you are feeling having struggled through 8 sessions of chemo (docetaxel)
