Kind of an embarassing question..

[bananas007]

maybe some of u guys have a similar problem, since you guys are big and sweat a lot.

My area near my butt crack, ass wedge, ass crack what ever u wnat to call it is super itchy and now super painful from minute abraasions probably secondary to scratching. Sometimes the itch is unbearable. I have done my best to keep it dry, apply vaseline twice a day, and clean it. However it hasnt healed. changed soaps, cleaned boxers, etc. etc. YOu guys ever had similar problem and found a cure..


Anticipating gay jokes let me just say I am 100% hetrosexual. I think it sstarted from sweating and working out and then falling asleep after workouts, about a year ago.

thanks

Well bro, personal hygine is key.

I suggest taking a shower after your workouts and wiping properly.

I also agree with Plang, try an anti-fungal spray.

Take care

ohh...and try switching to baby wipes....as SOCOM said, hygiene is key.

I love baby wipes.... especially when camping. No itchy butt from crappin in the woods

Does it not heal because of you itching it?, in your sleep maybe?

Or if it is bacteria or just a hard time wound that wont heal. When you take a shower wash it with your urine.

 

[thebrick]

Baby powder will help keep it dry

 

[Tyrone]

Baby powder will help keep it dry

And some neosporin should help heal durring night time/sleep.

 

[Thor]

YES

Baby powder will help keep it dry

Use baby powder on it after you shower and dry off in the am, use it every day and DO NOT use vaseline or anything like that on it. You may have to wait for it to heal a little before you use the powder but once it's healed daily use will prevent problems. You can also use an antifungal powder as well or Gold bond medicated powder.

 

[thebrick]

to help with the healing you can also use diaper rash ointment

Keep it clean, but look up: Pilonidal cyst.

If it wont heal have your doc check it out.

I second this. I'd like to see you piss on your own ass crack. Better yet maybe your old lady will do it for you.

 

[Towelie]

visit a doctor?

I have a spot like that. There is a small lump or was, since it's kinda gone away. But there are like 3 or 4 tiny holes that are there now where the cyst will drain out. It's kinda subsided in the last few years but when it first appeared it itched like crazy, drained, and hurt occasionally. They are very common, so it is possible that could be what you are looking at. They are even more common with military personal as constant jarring of the area can lead to them, i.e. off roading and such. It's right at the tailbone and the doc said he could remove it if I wanted but the healing process wasn't worth it to me, as they couldn't stitch it back together due to the skin being so tight and it would have to heal as an open wound for a few weeks by packing it with gauze. It hasn't bothered me in years. Just a possibility, so if it lasts for awhile have it checked out.

sounds like a bad case of monkey ass. If it is antifungals, medicated powder like goldbond and a renewed focus on personal hygiene should square it away. If you are getting similar rash like areas along your centerline as well, like along your sternum and spine then you may have a dermatitis of somesort. I had this a few times over the years from excessive sweating and a dermatologist prescribed me a lotion with kenalog in it (which is a cortiosteriod) and it cleared it up.

I feel your pain bro... Since moving to warmer climates, mine has flarred up as well. Its almost a permanent redness, but comes and goes with maintenance. First, I usually shower or remove any underwear immediately after sweating, second, airdry after shower... (meaning spreading my legs and sitting in front of a fan for at least a few minutes, then applying some powder), And last switching to Whitey Tighties... They help keep my balls from rubbing against my legs. It almost made me have to leave my last career because it got so bad. Some nights I would have to sleep naked and have a fan directly on the area. Hope this helps... But believe me... I know it sucks.

 

[jdavid1139]

Also, after reading some other posts, I would not apply any wet substance during the night, just from my experience, this is a BAD idea... For me the only way it got better was to dry it out...

As stupid and disgusting as this may sound it works.People cure their athletes foot by "peeing" on their feet in the shower.Dont believe me?Do a search and look it up..

But of course this would only be my last solution and opt for what some of what the guys have recommended here.

 

[Shredder01]

Try This

Having experienced similar symptons there are three solutions available;
1. Urine....miracle cure for a lot of ailments.
2. Antipeol Cream....available from any good pharmacy (in the UK...not sure about the US).
3. Heal Balm Cream....traditionally for athletes foot or dry hard skin, etc....contains urea and cures a lot more than it's specifically marketed for.

Also, if the wound fails to heal, remains red (perhaps in scab form mainly around the outside) and continues to itch, it may be 'ringworm'....google it. Don't worry, it's not a parasite, just a specific skin condition but all three of the above will cure it together with plenty of fresh air and no scratching....scratch your nuts instead!

Good luck.

More people suffer from this than you can imagine. One on the first things I would suggest is some good toilet paper. Something soft..with vitamin E and aloe. Be sure your clen,,but dont over wipe either. A corn starch/baby powder dash,,not alot,,can help keep moisture away so you dont get so raw.
