My father has severe mucositis and radiation skin peeling due to head and neck cancer. He is undergoing radiation and chemotherapy, and his blood count for WBC/neutrophils is low, along with low potassium and chloride levels. He has been given various creams and mouthwashes for his condition. What is the most effective treatment for his skin peeling and tongue condition, and how should he use these treatments?
