Major chafing (sp?)

So, stupid me walks around an amusement park yesterday in shorts that are not cotton. I have talc powder but any ideas to make it go away quicker?

Re: Major chafing (sp?)

  • Hydrocortisone cream works for me. For prevention if you know there's a potential for chafing, there's a product made for runners called "Body Glide". It looks like a stick of deodorant, and you apply it to the area that could potentially chafe. I use it when I wear skirts a lot.
  • Don't know how to make it go away faster, but in the future, body glide is great for preventing chafing!
  • I agree with PP about hydrocortisone cream put I use it with a cold damp paper towel over it. Not sure if it makes it go away faster but it makes it hurt less.
  • I second hydrocortisone. I use it whenever I get a really itchy heat rash on the insides of my arms or thighs.  It helps with the pain and itchiness.  Antibiotic cream like neosporin is also helpful for the pain and to heal it quickly.  Sorry you're dealing that!  That sucks :(
