Chaffing
When one skins rubs against each other or constant rubbing against another material. Repeated friction causes the condition, but moisture can make it worse. Chafing commonly occurs in warm, moist areas such as your inner thighs, groin, buttocks, armpits and under your breasts.
There are many steps you can take to prevent chafing. These steps include:
- If something starts hurting and feels like it’s chafing your skin, stop what you’re doing. Continuing may worsen the condition.
- Wear loose-fitting clothing. Check labels, and make sure to wear 100% cotton fabric. Cotton soaks up moisture and sweat. Seams and tags can also cause irritation. Keep your clothing clean and dry. Dried sweat, dirt and other debris can cause irritation.
- Use petroleum jelly, an anti-chafing cream or an anti-chafing stick to prevent chafing in easily irritated areas. This tip may be especially useful to help prevent and stop thigh chafing.
- Wear moisture-wicking socks to protect your feet from blisters. Also, wear properly fitting shoes.
- Apply soft, flexible bandages/plasters to areas such as your feet or nipples, which are especially prone to chafing.
