Issue by Rooney: How can I cease armpit chafing when surfing?
I wear a wetsuit when I go surfing, and I surf fairly substantially every last day. Nonetheless, because the previous couple of days, my armpits have been chafing from paddling. I believe that it’s the wetsuit rubbing versus the skin of my armpit. It’s gotten to the point the place it’s pretty agonizing to apply deodorant or paddle. I’ve tried sporting a rash guard beneath my wetsuit, but that didn’t aid.

Often in merchants they offer lotions that assist with chafing. I would say probably get a thicker rash guard, but based on how terrible it is this might not assistance

I consider their are a lot of kinds. The NSSA operates with colleges. They use the expression College student/Surfer all above the web site. I assume the greatest way to go about undertaking it is choosing a teacher at your school who is ready to be the sponsor for the organization on your campus. That great math instructor that you see surfing in the early morning, inquire him. Following that I think you are able to enter nearby tournaments.
Look at out the internet site bellow for far more information.

you can probably stick on some fabric to the inside of the wetsuit which should cover the part which is irritating, which is probably a seam, which should at least lessen the irritation.
if its still uncomfortable then try a thicker rash vest, make sure that the wetsuit/rash vest are not bunching up at the joint as that can irritate.
Simply apply vaseline to the area that gets the rash before you put your suit on. Staying out of the inside where the water is all churned up with sand will help also.
Sorry that happens to you, but go to a doctor he or she can help you out. Plus, don’t put this all over the internet, well no answer just advice.
