With the heat wave spreading over the United States this summer many of my patients are struggling with the effect of heat and moisture in skin folds such as:
1). Abdominal skin fold
2). Skin folds under breasts
3). Groins
4). In skin folds in the inner thighs
5). Other skin folds
The best treatment for this problem I have ever found is a product you can find at nearly any pharmacy. It is called ZeaSorb-AF. This is a nearly odorless, white powder seaweed product with an added anti-fungal agent.
I think this product is much better than corn starch or baby powder.
After showering, dry the areas well with a dry towel and apply this powder liberally in the skin folds to keep the areas dry and treat any fungal infection that may be starting in these locations.
I hope this helps you stay more comfortable during hot humid days and nights of summer.
Gold Bond lotion (lots of cheaper, generic versions out there too) I apply every day and have never had any issues with irritation!
