Sadly this is my area of expertise 😔
Use a non abrasive body wash (I use CLn) use a moisturizer absorbing powder (Walmart brand) make sure you pat dry the entire private area or air dry whichever you prefer. Cotton panties are 👌🏻wear loose fitting clothes on a more regular basis and pay attention to details. Don’t sit with legs crossed or to the side, intake too much caffeine, drive or sit too long things like that.

Sorry to hear of your predicament- my go to is a hot 🥵 bath. Or hot cloth. Sudocrem/cotton wool circle and micro-pore to keep it in place. If really off the chart / use soap and sugar poultice to draw. It really works- get white bar soap /. Take shavings mix with white sugar until it forms a paste put on offending boil again cotton wool circle and tape. It will draw the pain and poison out. I’m a hygiene freak / as we all are with this condition. Hope this helps take care. Sending hugs 🤗 - get better soon.

My advice to you to prevent them from coming on the private area so much if that’s the case is to switch up your panties only wear silky material and bath around your private area with cerave soap the one for rough bumpy skin it dries out the bump take epsom salt baths and look on my page go purchase the magic healer ointment okay I’m done thank me later i pray you feel better 🫶🏾

I had to have mine lanced when it prevented me from walking. I then changed underwear to long boxer shorts to lessen the friction in my groin. I am a women.
