sweaty undercarriage

RobAMerc

hello lads

I'm after putting on a few pounds over the last year, and while I fully intend to get this sorted I'd like some advice on an issue that seems to have arisen in the mean time.
I've started getting an fairy sweaty undercarriage area and chaffing at the top of the thighs.

I've bought a full new set of boxers all 100% cotton and started using baby powder all of which helps but I still seem to be getting sweaty and chaffed.

Its pretty uncomfortable and I think a bit smelly sometimes too.

Has anyone else had similar ?
Find a fix ?

thanks for your time.

Do you shower every morning. Have a look at what your eating, don't need to go run a marathon just drink water and eat less than your using every day.
Might be worth getting a check up in case it's blood pressure or heart related.

Dunno about baby power didn't a woman sue J&J recently as it gave her cancer and she proved it I think.

There might be some threads on body glide or similar in the running forum

Try dropping the baby powder.

I used it a few years ago on me giblets and ended up getting an awful scalding.

If you are persistently getting chaffed and there is an odour then you could have a fungal infection.

Think if most of the worlds mums were sprinkling carcinogenic material on their little babas a few times a day then it'd be fairly widely known

Baby powder is a bad idea, it will dry out the skin and repress sweat - ironically in doing this it will make it worse - more of a build up so to speak

You can get this in most Chemists

Lots of seriously overweight folk don't have " fairy sweaty undercarriage area" I'd say it's not linked to your weight tbh.

Have you asked your doctor is the two events are linked, rather than one causing the other?

Also, what sort of job do you work at? Had a similar issue as yourself when I worked in a pub; the moment I changed jobs, that the issue went away fairly quickly.

Try daktarin powder. I have used this on occasions and is far better than talc. Plus a bit of manscaping always helps

Rob, I suffered with this for a long time and tried all sorts of things including powders and antiperspirants. Two things have worked for me, Sudocrem and Calamine lotion. I find Calamine lotion to be even better, it does actually help to keep you dry (Sudocrem can be a little sticky) and you won't stink at all - give it a go, trust me it works.

Could underwear be an issue maybe?

Please explain Jack? Is it constant wearing or some other issue?

Tight badly breathable underwear.
