OT Heat rash? Under boob

Kind1too — Fri, 20 Jun 2014 20:52:04 GMT

I was out in sweltering heat and now I have some kind of heat type of rash. How do I know if it's yeast or something else? What is the best remedy to get rid of the itchy, itchy rash? I know I must not be the only one that has had this type of problem, especially with summer up on us.

It's probably itchy because you sweat and they your bra rubs against it, causing some irritation. Then you sweat again and it's just a vicious cycle. After you shower and dry off, put some baby cornstarch powder under there before you get dressed. Put some more on when you change for bed at night.

I have used gold bond powder, the baby one, with success.

Gold bond powder is really nice because it's soothing with menthol.

Blow the area absolutely dry with a hair dryer set on low heat. FOOT powder works well too. ""Itchies"" cannot live without moisture. I don't use corn based powder because some itchies like corn. The blowing dry is the most important part.

You can get a prescription cream from your doctor. Yeast infections can really take off running and be miserable.

lotrimin or clotrimazole cream. I think you can get it OTC. If not, have your doctor prescribe it. What you have is a yeast rash and this cream clears it up overnight.

Put the cream on at bed-time and then wear a cotton bra. You will be surprised at how fast this will clear up - just try not to sweat too much and always wear cotton bras....

I use A & D ointment.

Any type of first aid ointment (A&D for instance) gets rid of it in a day or two.

I knew I was going to be out and cooking on the grill, so I put antiperspirant on my forehead, so I would drip sweat into my eyes. Ever since I hit 50 my body has gone crazy.

Powder but I may try the deodorant.

You are going to think I'm crazy but here's what a Dr I used to have told me and a pharmacist said he wasn't crazy.

He said to buy a store brand of athletes foot cream. He said the same thing that gives people athletes foot is what causes the rash. It is made bad by moisture and darkness.

I get it and I use it and it works.

I am battling this right now & usually do a few times every summer. I just take a cotton ball & plain ole corn starch & dab it on well. Especially at night before bed. Usually gone in a day or two.

I use Gold Bond Friction Defense Stick. I get it at Walgreens. It's in a stick like a deodorant & it is great for under the breasts or anywhere that you may get chafing. Some powders can be too drying, but I do like Anti Monkey Butt Powder in the yellow or pink.
