Question for the gentleman

So, I'm sure my husband would be less than thrilled about me asking on his behalf, but here is the situation. He's a contractor and it has been incredibly hot and humid here. He has developed what we affectionately term Swamp *kitten*. For those unfamiliar, think red, chaffing and sweaty in the nether-regions....poor guy!!!! He has tried baby powder, diaper rash creams, etc...but they just aren't helping much. I figured maybe some of the guys who work out a lot or who run a lot in the heat might have some ideas that might help?

Have you tried Bepanthen baby rash cream? - usually works well

Good old plain corn starch. Dries the area up and gives relief. Have not had it in years yet when I worked on the farms as a kid use it all the time. Plain corn starch is bette4r than anything I had found!!!

Bahahahah that`s halarious.

My hubby works outside a lot and he uses zinc cream (like diaper rash cream) in the evening and then baby powder or talcum powder in the morning. But sounds like you are already doing that so:(

Alum rocks or powder in a cheese cloth bag, carry it in your front pocket.

Corn starch in the current situation. Body Glide might help in a preventative way. I use it when I hike.

Happened to a girl I work with husband from the heat it he gave it to her ended up being good old fashioned crotchet itch and lotrim cream cured them both.

As a father of 4, the one thing we have in bulk around the house is butt cream. Whenever I get really chafed, etc from being outside too much, I use that on me. Boudreaux's Butt Paste (yes that is the actual name) works wonders!

Gold bond medicated powder, 15 years working on the railroad and being Fat, I know exactly what he is going through. Gold bond works

I would swear by the anti-monkey butt stuff. Went through it like it was water while I was in Afghanistan. Works wonders!!

^This!! That stuff is MAGIC!

Also, there's this stuff called 'bag balm' farmers use it on cow udders. It says for 'dry cracked skin', but it works wonders on cuts, scrapes, and rashes. I would use the budreaux's during the day, and the bag balm after a shower and overnight.

An ole boy scout secret for summer campouts is using antiperspirant down there. Secret works well........ But to treat the current situation use some Blue Star Ointment.
