Hey guys I have a question.

Unfortunately lol I have come down with jock itch! I assume it is from exercising and wearing my scrubs. My scrubs are a little big from losing weight and the crotch is by my knees sometimes and I think from sweating I have gotten this anyway my question lol What can I use to help clear this up fast? I was using some cream corticoid i think, that I bought at the store but i think it made it worse. I just tonight used medicated powder the gold bond stuff and it cooled it down and stung like a bitc* lol but my boyfriend said to try the spray. I am afraid to use the spray because of my private. I don't want a yeast infection or any other kind of infection in there lol I never had one and don't want one. Now that I have been rambling can someone just give me a good thing to use for a girl! Lol

"Also, stay away from cotton..... it holds sweat and moisture which aids the chafing and the fungus growth."

Stay away from cotton? I think you must mean stay away from nylon...

Everybody knows you should wear cotton.:uhoh3:

I have a question here:

YOU ARE 20 YEARS OLD, sexually active, AND NEVER SEEN A GYNO? I think a visit is in order before trying ANY of these remedies. Who knows what it could be?

10-4 on the Cruex, and it's OTC. Also much empathy to Stopnik--I was 16, and sure I had some new, undiscovered VD (STD, these days).

Actually saw a doc when I had mine, for a different complaint. He said, "You should do something for that rash." Period.

Did I hear a duck?
