Skin changes: Skin is the major protection of our delicate internal tissues from a harsh environment, it is susceptible to injury itself. Friction and exposure to moisture (sweat) reducing protective skin oils is the cz. Clothing may also contribute by bunching or causing friction. Trying different clothing, avoid scratching and apply a good protective skin cream daily and see.
