Help! Chafing 😁😁

Claire • Sun, Jun 21

I know this is gross but... I am trying to stay active this summer but with the heat plus added weight in my hips and thighs, I have been dealing with some serious chafe on my inner thighs and butt anytime I'm outside for more than a few minutes,

even if I wear leggings! Any tips to help prevent or heal??

Bamboo leggings are completely amazing. Seraphine do them in three colours. I wore them fro trip through Death Valley, Mojave and Palm Springs and they fared great. Really good for wicking sweat when you're active.

I am dealing with this too. To help the healing part of it I read neosporin... And it HELPS! Big time.

Don't wear leggings. Wear breathable fabrics like loose cotton, and I think using a swipe of deodarent would work to prevent the sticking. I've also ears of this new brand of creams called skin fix, I've seen they make a chaffing cream.

Good call on the breathable fabrics. I've been using leggings just to keep skin-to-skin contact to a minimum but I'll try something looser.

I use deodorant too, the stick kind you can just apply where needed. It's a lifesaver

Awesome thanks! I will try that!

The new dry spray deodorant by Dove or Degree. I spray a bit on my inner thighs. Helps.

This happens to me too, I try to moisturize really well then I use 'Monistat Chafing Gel' between my thighs to help prevent it. I've been wearing shorts non stop & it helps!

Body glide and anti monkey butt powder are my best friends. I'm a runner and this stuff really saves me!
