How to stop chafing and raw skin

Post by realme1976 »

I wear a Holy Trainer nub, 45mm ring. I have found that periodically I must remove it because the skin below my scrotum where the ring meets the balls gets red and raw. Does anyone have any suggestions about a salve or ointment or lotion that I can apply to reduce the redness and increase my long-term wear? It usually happens after about two weeks, then at least three days' removal to heal. Have tried a 40mm ring and it's too small. Really cuts into the goals of long-term chastity. Thanks.

It might be sweating or trapped moisture rather than friction. Either way a decent barrier cream should help.
Personally I use sudocrem because we always have it in the house since the kids were baby's. it's good for nappy (diaper) rash.
This is rarely needed to be honest. Usually in summer if I sweat a lot

I use Aveeno Daily Moisturising Lotion morning and evening. By the way I’m just trialing an HT5 nub 40mm and love tue press button lock. May not be as secure I don’t know but it’s so much less hassle !!

After a year post covid of “freedom” I am trialing a good old HT V3 nub modified by me to have a glans ring so no pullout. Working well so far.

Twice daily application of silicone lube works for me. Just put a couple of drops on a cotton swap and poke it between skin and ring.

I just use plain old Baby Oil after I shower in the morning and before going to bed.

I like petroleum jelly. Cheap and readily available most grocery stores and Walmarts. Plus you can buy small lip balm size you can pocket in case of emergency.

After a lot of years of trying a lot of things and also using nothing at all I have found that Aveeno moisturizing lotion works great. I use a little around the ring and on my balls after my shower in the morning and again just before bed.

Once a day, usually after morning shower, a quick swipe of a little Vaseline both behind and in front of the base ring along the underside (usually the top isn't an issue) to get the old dried stuff off the ring where it meets the skin and get everything slick again (I twist the cage until it swivels back and forth without any grabbing) and I'm good to go. In the shower beforehand, doing the same with soap including a finger inside the cage from both sides (yes, there's room, although I'd like to try a smaller diameter cage, at which point there prob won't be room) and occasionally also a good lather with a soft-ish back brush, applied carefully because some times it is a little rougher than I'd prefer. But it does do a job getting everything sparkly clean on a daily basis as a starting point.
