Whether you call it thigh chafing or chub rub, it’s just as painful. By any name, it’s still skin irritation and, in this case, it gets more irritated with every step you take, especially in hot or humid weather. At its worse, it can become a rash of searing pain that literally stops you in your tracks.
Perhaps even worse, it seems that what works to help prevent thigh chafing for one person doesn’t necessarily work for another. In other words, you have to try different solutions until you find the one that works for you.
To help get you started, here are just a few ways you can prevent thigh chafing this summer.
1. Creams and Lotions
There are lots of great creams and lotions that will prevent chafing, and there are lots of not so great creams and lotions that won’t. Products with zinc oxide, like Desitin, are popular and effective. Zinc oxide is like a universal skin irritation fix-it ingredient. It’s used in diaper rash products and sunscreens. The beauty of zinc oxide is that it is moisture resistant and it won’t stain your clothes, unlike vaseline. Body Glide is another popular solution that uses many natural ingredients, including eucalyptus oil and tea tree oil.
2. Bandalettes, Boxers and Anti-Chafing Shorts
If your thighs don’t actually come in contact with each other, they won’t chafe. Bandalettes fit around your upper thigh, while the boxers and shorts are more like underwear with legs. All of them stop your thighs from rubbing together.
3. Shapewear
Mass and slim shapewear for preventing thigh chafing
