Question 1

how do i remove frictions on my inner thighs?

Accepted Answer

Thigh friction: Typically either caused by large body habitus or fat that localizes on the inner thighs. Powders may relieve chafing and clothes that do not cause friction when they rub together is best like lycra for instance.

Question 2

why does friction make my inner thighs burn?

Accepted Answer

Skin irritation : Friction between your thighs causes inflammation both through constant irritation of the outer layers of the skin and continued micro-damage to the outer-layers of the skin. This along with warmth, sloughing off of epidermis, and change in superficial normal flora, all lead to skin irritation in the area. I hope this answer helps!

Question 3

itchy inner thighs (rashes)swollen large patches. when i spread my legs it's like a half basketball size. symmetrical. 5days so far. can't be friction?

Accepted Answer

Possible: Possibly heat rash.  Also may be fungal or even an allergic reaction or sensitivity to your underwear.  Consider chaffing gel, and cotton only underwear or boxers.  If fungal may benefit from over the counter fungal products.  If gets worse or persists, I would seek out an opinion from your family doc to get a look at it and possibly benefit from a prescription.

Question 4

Please see about: getting the cyst removed by your doc.  That is at the root of things.  When that is done your skin can grow back.  Peace and good health.  Be careful not to get infected.

Question 5

Accepted Answer

Itching: Itching in your groin area could be causes that include but not limited to fungal infection, dry skin, eczema etc. Please see your doctor to get evaluated if regular plain white moisturizers and anti itch creams are not helping. Please don't use steroid cream without seeing your doctor.

Question 6

Accepted Answer

See derm: most likely this is a folliculitis , not uncommon  in the inner upper thighs, esp in people that either shave that area or have large legs which tend to rub together together when moving. suggest see dermatologist for eval and tx. there are other clinical  entities as well, so seeing a derm would be the best thing for you.

Question 7

i have a friction burn on my leg from the boots that i was wearing. it stings so what should i do to ease the pain? how to treat it for recovery?

Accepted Answer

Skin injury: Wash with soap and warm water.  Air dry.  Some bacitracin ointment can help, and avoid the offending boots.

Question 8

i have an outbreak on my inner thighs . what is the cause of it ?

Accepted Answer

: Hard to say. Skin issues usually require a direct exam if a detailed description does not point to a cause. Here we don't have a description, just a location. You are welcome to start over &amp; provide more information to work with.

Question 9

which exercises for the inner thighs and the abdominals are considered effective?

Accepted Answer

For weight loss ...: You cannot target specific areas for weight loss - if you have adipose tissue to lose (not everyone does), then consider an increase in cardio & a balanced diet. However, do not always do the same exercise or you will increase your risks for stress injuries. Mix things up with walking, running, biking, swimming, elliptical, or circuit training. Ultimately you need to burn more than you consume.

Question 10

how to remove inner-thigh fat?

Accepted Answer

Inner Thigh Bulge: The upper inner thigh is a common area to hold onto fat even after achieving a healthy weight through diet and exercise. If the skin tone in this area is good then liposuction may be the answer. If the skin tone is poor then a thigh lift could be the ticket. Consult with a plastic surgeon certified by the american board of plastic surgery.
