I wear compression shorts and STILL have issues with inner thigh chafing, especially during jogging because I run with my legs really close together. What are your methods for preventing this unsightly, painful rash?
Thanks for reading my post.

i wear like supre tights or any tights should do the trick as long as ur thighs arnt touching they should be right!

Have you thought about nappy rash cream? I haven't tried it, I don't get a rash but it might work? You'd put the rash cream on first and then baby powder over the top??0

There is a cream called 3B cream we have in AU that prevents chafing - works a treat0

This has to be one of my biggest pet hates of being overweight... Thighs rubbing together :-(
I bought some control knickers that go half way down my thighs for wearing with dresses / skirts during summer weather - roll on cooler weather so I can wear tights again !!0 -
zinc and castor oil cream - which is baby rash cream. Your local supermarket should have it :-)0
