Chafing is usually found in the inner thighs and inner glutes; armpits and nipples. Runners develop chafing during medium to long distance runs but can be susceptible to chafing during short runs as well.
Non-runners can develop chafing as well. Cyclist, walkers, football players, and many more. Regardless of what activity you do, understand the cause and knowing that there is a solution like bluerub®, is half the battle.[/fusion_text][fusion_title margin_top=”” margin_bottom=”” hide_on_mobile=”small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility” class=”” id=”” size=”3″ content_align=”left” style_type=”underline solid” sep_color=”#00cbce”]chafing – how to prevent it?[/fusion_title][fusion_text]
Applying an anti chafe product like bluerub® prior to your event is critical in minimising your body to irritation or rubbing. Choosing the correct clothing can also help reduce the effects of chafing. Clothing that doesn’t wick away moisture will create wet clammy skin, increasing the chances for blisters and sores. Clothing that is too tight or baggy can create a “rub zone”. Properly fitting socks are just as important as the lime green designer top you bought. Chafing can and will occur on your feet. bluerub® was tested and effectively performed at marathon distances on runners feet.
