skirts and thighs


Question Posted Thursday September 25 2008, 5:12 pm

I love skirts and dresses, and I love wearing them, but when I wear them my thighs rub together and it just hurts. It's rather uncomfortable, it's sweaty and it chafes.

Is there anything I can do, besides wear leggings/tights, to prevent this?

There are many products sold to help with thigh chafing issues. Many women suffer from this and it can be a very irritating experience.

You may want to look into some pre-wear products. Apply to your thighs before your skirt for comfortable wear.

*A good deodorant/antiperspirant (unscented roll-on, stick, or spray)
*Baby powder or cornstarch (must keep reapplying)
*Cocoa butter in a stick (reapply occassionally)
*Petroleum jelly (Vaseline) or Lansinoh
*Udder Balm or Bag Balm (products manufactured for livestock, but safe and effective for human use. Runners and long distance athletes have used them for years.)
*Biker shorts, long underwear (bloomers or pantaloons), hosiery, tights

Some treatment options for this sort of thing are:

Goldbond powder
Balmex (any diaper rash treatment should help)
A&D ointment
Wash with soap and water, let air dry.

You can search on the internet for "chub rub" and get some remedies. It's referred to as "chub rub" because the part of the thigh that rubs and chafes is usually the "fattest" or "chubbiest" part.

If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask me! :)
