exercise and skin problems?

froeschli

Since i started running, my face has cleared up a lot (well, except for the few days a month when i can't help eating all chocolate in sight).
however, all my skin problems seem to have migrated to my stomach - of all places :grumble:
looks like it's mostly ingrown hairs, but exfoliating doesn't do much...

I've read it can be caused by laundry detergent or softener - i quit using softener altogether and changed to a hypoallergenic detergent - no real change though.

anyone have suggestions? It would be a real bummer if i finally got my tummy in shape, but wouldn't be able to show it off because i am embarrassed about all red blotches on it...
