I am experiencing a problem which is worsening. I believe it is weather related. It is becoming more and more painful as time goes on.
My inner thighs have become chafed (chapped) ... yesterday, they hurt something fierce. I did not want to go to work because I did not want to put on pants but of course I had to go. When I got home after work, the first thing I did was take off my khakis and put on some loose jersey pajama bottoms. Then I got the bright idea to rub lotion on them. I am not a lotion person so I had to dig around pretty deep to locate the only lotion I have ---->>> the lotion name is Mane 'n Tail Hoofmaker. It is probably 6 + years old. I remember someone telling me to buy it but cannot remember what it was supposed to specifically help. Anyway, I squirted a generous amount into my hands, gently rubbed it on my inner thighs. Not wise of me. They immediately turned an even brighter red and the burning pain continues to be over the top even now. Of course I washed off the lotion as soon as I realized I had goofed up but the damage was done. Who could know?
Should I go buy Baby Oil or Petroleum Jelly or what? Has anyone had this happen to them before? If so, please tell me what works best.
I have the same thing going on with my hands too, especially the tops but am able to pretty much ignore their pain.
I have never had this happen before now and am clue-free on how to help myself get better.
Thanks a lot!

Try Cerave cream. It comes in a white plastic jar. It's very gentle on sensitive skin and was recommended by a Dermatologist for my daughter's eczema when she was a baby. I use it when my hands get cracked and irritated and it doesn't burn. It's a little pricy but it's good stuff. I would also find some softer pants to wear temporarily if possible. Hope this helps. 😊
