Prickly heat

There are some casulaties here to the 100+ degree heat here. My thighs and those of my poor eldest boy who inherited my tendency for my thighs to rub together. Even when I was a skinny high school gal I had this problem.

Hasn't been a problem for either of us till we hit triple digits. So, the heat rash sucks and makes life miserable. But, it also makes me laugh when I think of the MASH episode where Hot Lips got prickly heat on her "cute little caboose" as Col. Potter called it.

Wish someone would call me Hot Lips.

    My advice to Pickle.....boxer briefs, and quickly. I have exactly the same problem, and that solved it immediately.

    Get some Gold Bond Medical Powder. It will help clear it up.

    NDT: Well, there's something ELSE we know. *giggles*

    AoD - you can STILL say it ...

    And, Gold Bond powder it is. I just hate it when my normally very soft smooth skin gets icky. And, my poor baby is miserable.

    I used to think that boxer-briefs were gay. But I've had several women assure me that they were not and that they were cool. So I wear them now.

    At first I felt a little "catch-me-F-me" like maybe I needed some red pumps to go with them. But I got used to them soon.

    LOL...I actually started wearing them when I was still cowboying regularly. Tight Wranglers are both beautiful and functional, but they hold in heat like a silo.....trust me, you have not known pain until you've spent ten hours in the saddle with the elastic from tight briefs rubbing in your most secret places. Boxer briefs are a NECESSITY.
