RE:obesity related skin rashes

I know this is a rather delicate subject but I know lots of you have probably dealt with this same thing. I wanted to share something that helps. Us larger folks get nasty rashes and skin funk under the rolls and fat aprons and all the antibacterial soaps and powders don't seem to stop the wetness and odors. It feels like your own body fluid is burning you and eating you up. When my daughter had her baby she got a rash cream from her breast feeding counselor. It's called Paladin. I kid you not this stuff works. I use it and told a friend and she got some. Now all her friends use it....for any kind of rash......Yeah, it even works for guys. I was at Walgreens tonight and saw it on the shelf behind the pharmacy counter. I thought it might help someone else out there.

That is good to hear. But, But, But..those skin rashes can also help you get the additional plastic surgery after WLS if it is documented well. I am in the process of getting approval for the Abdominal plasty due to the rash and the amount of the "overhang".

I know what you mean and I have a lot Dr. visits to show for it. I haven't even had the surgery yet. When I do, every step I take I'll have to kick the overhang out of the way. lol
