Thigh chafing and 'chub rub' be painful & annoying, but there are ways to treat and prevent it. Here's how, according to dermatologists and someone who beat it.
While most people love hot weather, I dread warm weather in New York: The combination of heat and humidity means my thigh chafing—otherwise known as “chub rub”—will inevitably return. Almost everyone can relate to this experience in one way or another, since despite the colloquially used moniker that is chub rub, heat-induced skin chafing has very little to do with being chubby. My inner thighs have always rubbed together, no matter my weight or size.
Body Powder Dr. Camp also suggests using moisture-wicking powder or baby powder, since dry lubricants help to minimize shearing forces and get rid of unwanted moisture. Regular baby powder for babies can and does work, but there are several products intended and formulated for sweat-producing adults, too.
