Recurring rashes in inner thighs Posted: 07-10-08 00:43am
This has been an intermittent problem for
a number of years, and seems to get worse
every time summer comes around. In my
area, the summertime heat brings high
levels of sticky humidity and that seems
to make it worse.
It's a rash in the inner upper thigh area,
between the scrotum and anus, where the
thighs rub together as I walk. Sometimes,
it's so bad that I can't even walk because
of it. Over the past few days, it's been
getting worse.
Sometimes at night before I go to sleep,
I'll rub some A&D diaper rash ointment on
it and it will be okay for the next day.
Baby powders and Gold Bond seem to work
great in the morning for keeping the
friction from creating pain, but that
quickly wears off halfway through the day,
probably through humidity and sweat.
It has to be some sort of heat- or
friction-related rash, but I'm wondering
if anyone's experienced it or what can be
done about it.
If anyone can post some help, it would be
greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
