    To be honest Lom, the main reason I wear them is to maintain modesty around the garden. I'm not so worried about the missus but the daughter's at an impressionable age and talks about stuff to her classmates, and of course there's the gardener...

    Friend had that on the nuts. Waited 2 days.


    Resulted in amputation.


    Oh well, sleep well Mendy.

    Menthol prickly heat powder is the way to go Mendy.

    Otherwise the rash will get worse.

    Had it a few times in Thailand and the relief is instantaneous.

    If you have had fungal infections badly in the past, your skin can sometimes develop them more easily thereafter.

    And don't forget, if you get rid of it on your skin, you may be later re-infecting yourself from the fungus still existing in the material of your pants. That's why you can buy ketaconazole to soak clothes in.

    BTW, Canesten is pretty crap and slow-acting. All it does is stop fungus reproducing. What you want is something like Lamasil, which actively kills it.

    This is the kind of thinking that perpetuates the dealership network. Brake pipe is brake pipe. My moan for the day.

    I can't walk anywhere without scratching it almost to the point of embarrassment, but when sitting down it's just unbearable and I'm constantly rubbing at it to get some relief. A cold shower when I go to be helps for a while before the itching starts up again.

    I found some old nappy rash cream in my wash bag today but I reckon it must be at least 9 years old and doesn't seem to make any difference. Canestan cream normally helps for this but we haven't got any... a trip to the pharmacy first thing tomorrow me thinks.
    Funginox from the pharmacy. Comtains the stuff that LD refered to. Just spray it on.

    Yep, Joe's nailed it. Instantaneous relief.

    In the past when I got a similar rash and used prickly heat powder it never worked for me.
    So I eventually found a cream/gel called "Ungvita" which works a treat for me.
    It is a vitamin A gel and smells fishy but it is magic as far far as I am concerned particularly for chafes.
    I have been unable to walk due to the chafe and once I use the Ungvita I can walk without any issues and the rash is gone by the next morning.
    Different strokes for different folks I guess.

    That sentence simply cannot be uttered by anyone but an idiot.

    Prickly Heat will have minimal effect on clearing it up. It's a fungal infection and needs an anti fungal creme.

    Did you all miss that Mendy already knows what he needs? He mentioned it in his first post on the topic.

    I used to use prickly heat regulary, but eventually realized that it was just masking the symptoms, not sorting them out.

    In all honesty, get thee to a decent dermatologist for a long term solution if the cream does not put you right.

    Thanks for all the suggestions guys.

    I'll start with Canesten and work through the others.

    Nid, it would have to be a female dermatologist to go rummaging around down there.


    Edit: Apart from the skirt idea that is. That won't happen.

    I've used Canesten Creme for mild fungal infections between the toes and Snake brand Prickly Heat Cooling Powder for mild heat rashes on my body. Would stress 'mild' in both cases...cannot comment for worse cases.

    Yes, that's exactly what putting menthol talc on a fungal rash will do.

    It might deprive the rash of moisture to inhibit its growth, but it won't clear it up.

    ^ Because there is nothing in menthol talc to inhibit fungal reproduction or kill it. It may fix things eventually by drying the area, but that will be a pain in the arse (literally) for some time.
