Help! I ran a lot more last night than I ever have in my life and I found towards the end my inner thighs were chaffing. It was so bad that when I was trying to do my cool down walk last night I couldn't walk right. I was doing some sort of waddle in order to not let my legs touch. lol This morning it still hurts and is very raw and red. What can I do to prevent it? and What can I do now to make it stop hurting? I put some Vasiline Cocoa Butter lotion on it this morning. Is there any kind of powder that will help or do I need to start wearing spandex shorts under my mesh shorts?

I bought myself some Underarmor brand underwear that fit like spandex and come halfway down my thigh. I absolutely love them. You will not get any chaffing wearing these under your shorts.

Another option would be to apply vasaline or some other lubricant before your run.

Drex is right - wear something tight, either underwear or tight shorts.

"Glide" is a good brand of "slippy" it won't leave your crotch all greasy lookin.
Found at the bike or running, or swimming section. Throw it under your arms too.

on races I will throw a gob of vaseline down yonder, but only for races.
