Post Radiation side effects

Hi all

I’m curious, my dad was walking on a cane before radiation with frequent pain spells because the cancer spread to the bones particularly the femur head. After his radiation treatment, he’s been in so much pain and now requiring the wheelchair. It’s been 5 days since. Is this normal?
