Diabet-X, now that sounds good. Having diabetes now is a pain in the butt. Since it seems to make this worse maybe this stuff is made for people like me?
I will check into this.
Thanks

Well, poorly controlled blood sugar makes us more susceptible to infection, and skin bugs are SO prolific that it seems to be a mega major thing for diabetics. So yeah, there are quite a few such products that are marketed primarily to diabetics, although they're useful for anyone with that particular problem.

DESITIN CREAM...I just posted the other day on how well desitin works for more then just diaper rash. I use tohave a 52F before breast reduction, so I know a thing or two about infected skin under the breast...Shower good, dry good and apply desitin. In 24 hours you will se an amazing difference...

Magic Butt cream. It is a prescription and a special mix of several meds. I believe it has nystatin, lotrisone, desitin and something else. My daughter's bum used to turn to raw hamburg after eating or drinking anything with apple grape or pear in it. This cleared it up quickly.

Monistat cream, take acidopholis pills/liquid. Make sure you put powderunder your vbreasts after every shower, shower 2-3 times/daily to keep sweat off your body. I have had these too, but by using podwer and showing at least twice daily, I never have thisproblem anymore.

I swear by nystatin you have to get by perscription.
But it works wonders....
I get it under my belly and breasts and i wash up and put this on and its gone in notime...It doesnt burn or leave a mess

Go to Walmart and buy their brand of Gold Bond powder. I use it all the time and its cheap and works. Also make sure your extra dry after a shower. Use a hair dryer or an oscillating fan works for me. Hope this helps you. Let me know if you use it and it works.

Well, you've gotten a lot of great answers. I've used Gold Bond medicated powder and Balmex and both worked to heal and prevent.
I was actually surprised how many people on here suggested what I thought I was the only one doing! lol  and that's deoderant. I use the men's Degree deoderant under my "tube sock boobies" and under my Panni. I was getting this really foul odor that I'm sure was caused by yeast infections, even if I didn't see the rash. This has eliminated the rashes and the smell!!! It is a pain, but I do it daily!!!
Best of luck to you on this honey!!! And remember, after you've had your WLS and start to lose weight, if you do get rashes, take pictures of them and have a dr. document them. They actually help with PS approval later on!

Believe it or not, a dermatologist told me to keep the area dry by using a hair dryer on the low setting.  Moistness makes the condition worse. 

Make sure the areas are kept dry as much as you can.  Good luck with that.
