Title: Can we talk about an uncomfortable topic?
Post by: Emo EMAW on January 28, 2013, 10:25:10 AM
Chaffing.  Like in the choad area from running or walking a lot.  Is that was Gold Bond is for?

Yes, and it works like a charm.

Thanks guys.  How do you apply?  Like chowder on hand and then wipe?  Or like shoot it up there with bottle?

chowder on hand then wipe is less messy. It does get all over the floor, though, no matter what you do.

On a related topic, have any of you guys ever had to deal with chafed nipples? That's way worse than chafed thighs, imo. I lost some weight a few years ago and used some of my old baggy shirts to work out in. Never again.

Supposedly you can put scotch tape on your nips to prevent the chaffage.

Was going into work on short notice for a couple hours and skipped the undershirt with a textured dress shirt.  Considered the ol' band aid on the nipple trick pretty quickly.  Won't make that mistake again.

It's like deodorant.  Forget the chowder.

Remind me again why chaffing is an uncomfortable topic...?

Also, compression shorts are phenomenal. You shouldn't need more than 2 pair assuming your chaffing only occurs when you work out.

Regular gold bond is great, but that sounds even greater.  Also, corn starch works like a charm.

yeah compression shorts and you'll be fine. and then when all of a sudden there are holes in the shorts where the chaffing would have occurred, you'll realize all of the pain you avoided by buying them.

Yeah, a gold bond stick is definitely intriguing. Dlew, does the stick give you a cool, breezy feeling like the chowder does?

yes.  it's incredible.  in my time of need, it was probably the most satisfying purchase I've ever made

Wow.  :excited: I almost wish I were chafed right now just so I could go try out that stick. Almost.

God have mercy on you if the compression shorts rip anywhere on a seam if you're in the middle of competition. I was playing tennis in the fall when a pair I had tore high inside my thigh, it was the worst chafe I ever had and my sweat made it worse.

As for gold bond, I put it in my hand and pat. Wiping sounds gross.

True story: I had a roommate in college who experienced a sudden onset of what he initially thought was groin area chafing, which he treated with gold bond chowder.  It turns out he wasn't chafed, he had herpes.  The most baffling aspect is that he actually told his three roommates (me included) without provocation or even interest on our part.  Just spilled his beans all over the place one night when we had all gotten back from the bars.  It was like he expected some sort of catharsis, but all he got was a room full of  :sdeek: s.

The look on his face when he realized what a horrific mistake he made was amazing. It was a cross between looking like he was going to be sick and the pain from someone having ripped the hair off his taint.  So great.  For a while after that, one of us would always have a fake disturbing personal revelation to the group upon getting home from the bars.  I think that actually helped to soften the blow as opposed to just pretending like he didn't say that stuff except when other people were over and were like what's going on.

So anyway, based upon my research on the subject there's a strong probability that you have herpes

I have Under Armour.  They work.  Never ripped before, however they do seem to wear down (for lack of a better way of describing it) within about a couple of years.  That could be just typical wear and tear for compression shorts though.

i've worn nike and adidas and both are fine. the nike ones i've worn consistently for about 3 years now and they are just now starting to develop holes in the chaffing area. doesn't rub enough to make me stop wearing them though, yet.
