Thread: Ball Bag Chaffing

Those of you that suffer from your balls rubbing against your thigh and end up with chaffing, what are you using? I have cycle type underwear that work ok but with a pack on it has a tendency to push them down, expose the ball bag to the thigh and before you know it, it can sting like buggery.

I carry some of that chaff balm, handy but not full proof.

What underwear do you use to protect your balls?

I tie a string around my neck, thread it down thru my clothing against my skin until its low enough to loop around my tackle and hold it up. I use a slip knot halfway so I can adjust tension and lift if I'm leaning forward for uphill or heavy carrying. I find bailing twine is a good strength, does not break under the load.

Stop shaving your balls and wear loose fit jocks

Canterbury compression pants like the rugby players used to use.

Don’t shave me balls, think that’s half the problem! Bit course

wash them, air them, then apply corn flour,
next day go commando

Don’t know if your being serious

I happens in a day, last good trip was a quick 24hr, 35 clicks and 2900m of elevation. Quite hot and just about rubbed a hole in my thigh!

my wife solved that problem for me, she has them in her handbag

Puff of baby/talcum powder maybe?

Yip, second this. Ex shearer here, quite common in the business. Go commando for a bit.

Go and see your local vet, they normally de-sex a cat for $100, I wouldn't imagine a person would be much more.
Of course you may get the urge to start licking your arse afterwards but hey problem solved .

Fixed that for you…

I think it is time to have the saddler make up a medieval Cod Piece and learn the chorus to 'Blackadder'

That sounds like the kind of advice you would get at a gay bar..... not that I've ever been to one , just saying.

Have you considered heat shrink tubing?
