Right, Embarrasing i know, but hey, there might be a doctor or something here..


For the last 3 years or so, i've had bad sweat problems at the top of my inner legs. Everytime i walk the top of my legs sweat like mad, making my boxers wet. And due to walking they rub causing a Rash to appear ( Really bad burning feeling ). Meaning i can't walk pretty much.


I've been to the docs and they were useless. I've tryed anti fungal creams but they didn't work either, ive also tryed tight/loose boxers, cotton / silk boxers etc. I clean it a lot but still no help.

Anyone suffered this problem? Its driving me mad, It means i never really go out and socialize, its made me miss days off school and college before, and now im working im walking lots & lots and can't afford to take any days off.

I've had a look at this page and i might just ordered about £30 worth of creams / sprays... Thats how desperate i am !

Anyway, ill no doubt recieve a good slagging, and get called 'Sweaty balls' ( Even though its my inner leg... ) :p But if anyone has any advice id LOVE to hear it.
 
Talking of school/college and now into work, I'm guessing you're still a young 'un. Part of being an overly hormonal developing teen, pretty much. Keep up with the loose cotton boxers (no synthetics), and ditch the creams. You don't want to apply something wet to a sweaty area! Something like Daktarin anti-fungal powder works miracles for anything like this, as the powder itself dries the area and keeps it fresh, while taking down any irritation. Not medical advice, just some comfort advice :p

Yeah im 18.

I'll give the powder a try, already used Talc Powder but that doesn't seem to stop the sweating.

Might try the docs again at somepoint next week, may be the sweat glands or something, but its bloody annoying :(

Driclor it.

Don't have the problem, and I don't in my arm pits either, but I use driclor anyway.

Put it on once a month maybe, and just don't sweat in my armpits.

Don't think it necessarily has to be put in armpits, so probabyl worth a try.

Tight fitting synthetics is the last thing you'd want :eek::D Just remember to wash the area at least one a day, preferably twice, then re-apply the Daktarin (if you choose to try this route). In a few days it should subside somewhat, but don't give up or it'll come back worse! As was said, speak to your GP again, they have way better stuffs to try ;)
