Picture Me Naked!
by AinsleyJo | May 07 '01
In my opinion, no glossary on basic skin care would be complete without including information about the topic I'm covering here: the treatment of irritating rashes.Return to opinion

Actually, the tiger guy and me never went out to dinner. Next place I saw him was at the funeral home after his mom passed away.
I've been thinking of him, though, and I'll probably drop him a line!
Thanks for dropping by and reading my too much information.
Ciao!
AJ :-)

Oy, for an article interestingly titled Picture Me Naked, this was simply way too much information, LOL. Totally unexpected, but I deserve it for returning your visit to my page with a visit to yours.
Glad you found something to relieve the nagging itch and rash though. Poor you! And I hope you got to go on a raincheck dinner date with the tiger guy later too. ;D

Thanks for returning and being more specific about body area.
In my own case, it has been a one-time incident caused by flab on flab with a fold in the middle, but I'll be sure to be aware in case this starts to become something regular with me.
I used to have the same thing on my thunder thighs quit a bit where my legs might rub together during a long walk, if I were walking bare-legged (as in wearing shorts or a dress).
The way I solved this problem was by either putting powder on my thighs or else wearing longer pants (e.g. jeans) to do long-distance walking in.
When I was eleven, my folks and I walked all over NYC one hot summer day, and I was wearing a dress.
We started at our motel, and walked all the way to Central Park and all around the same.
My thighs really felt sore, and, when I looked down, they had been rubbed bloody, so we took the bus back and asked the person at the hotel desk what might be good for that. The clerk suggested Bactine, so we got some (it was in the form of a clear liquid in a squeeze-bottle), and it felt so soothing and cleared up my bleeding heat rash almost instantly.
Hugs!

Thanks! And, from what I've gathered about you, you're also a very beautiful guy--starting from the inside where it counts the most and continuing on out.
Your sketch looks very handsome--reminds me of a very good friend who's as close as a brother--so I think that most women would find you to be attractive.
Personally, when it comes to the outer packaging of a studmuffin, my studmuffins have been wrapped in a wide variety of outer packages.
When I watched the movie about The Elephant Man, I thought that he had a lot of sex-appeal because he was so very sensitive and such a gentleman.
Had I lived back in that time, I would have been very open to having him for a suitor--and, if things worked out, would have also been happy to have become his wife--and I would never be ashamed of being seen out with him.
Anyway, thanks for such a sweet and thoughtful comment!!!
Hugs!

lol..now you got me blushing:0)! I wasn't speaking of the (L) but rather right under the belly area, like where you would have a c-section. I thought it was wierd advice to but it ended up being true for a lot of diabetics that I know.

I knew exactly ... (Reply to this comment)
by barakah59
the area you were speaking of.
I must admit I still blushed a little, but I agree with your earlier comment somethings need to be spoken of freely. Especially if it has to do with health issues in embarrassing places.
On another note:
From what I have gleaned about you through your comments and articles I picture a VBW (Very Beautiful Woman) from the inside out.
God bless you AJ

Re: PS (Reply to this comment)

Since you were thinking I was talking about my vaginal lips, I can see where a lot of people might consider this to be unmentionable--but I was talking more about a string-bikini-line area irritation.
However, I'm glad that you put the warning in about the yeast infections and diabetes in order to encourage people to talk more freely about irritations in embarrassing places.
The human body is a beautiful and God-created thing, and--though I believe that modesty plays an important part in the proper display of it--there should be no part of it that people should feel funny about mentioning, with this being especially the place when it comes to discussing their health with a medical professional!
When I wrote this little piece, I had no idea how important medically it might turn out to be (beyond finding a good cream/ointment to treat prickly heat), but, if this will really make a difference in the health of someone reading this, this makes me so much happier!
Without feedback from people like you, though, it wouldn't have been all that effective!
Thanks for sharing your knowledge!!!
Hugs!

Re: .. (Reply to this comment)
by AinsleyJo
Thanks for your concern and advice!!!
But I think that you thought I was talking about the even lower folds (labia).
This is just where my big, fat belly hangs over and creases at the bottom, and I had a problem with prickly heat down there. It's still part of the tummy area rather than the vaginal area. It isn't even as low as the pubic triangle.
If I pulled my belly upward to expose where it folded, it would be right above the pubic triangle in the middle and right above where my legs join my torso on my sides.
This irritation--which, thankfully, doesn't happen very often at all--was on the left side.
It was plenty angry and raw at the time but cleared up within hours when the cream was applied.
It was, in a way, like diaper rash for adults, only caused by sweat instead of pee.
Anyway, it's really sweet of you to let me know about this.
Hope you're having a great day today and that you're in VERY good shape for the shape you're in!!!
Hugs!
AJ :o)

You know my doctor says, that when people have irritation in between the folds, this can be do to a yeast infection, caused by to high of a blood sugar. If you still experience this often I would suggest seeing your doctor and getting your sugar checked for diabetes.

Re: I+don't+generally+Epinionate+naked,+myself... (Reply to this comment)
by AinsleyJo
You sound like me! I don't know that I've ever gotten any irritations up in those belly folds until I had enough rolls of fat to create them. So, in my case, the round-girl theory fits!
The cortizone worked beautifully with me, so I don't see myself getting a prescription, but I appreciate your sharing this, anyway, because I'm sure that there are probably others (like yourself) who might be reading this and would find an alternative to be necessary.
I'm wearing the same clothes I went to church in today, because I'd kept planning to go out. In fact, as soon as I finish writing this, I WILL be going out (about time)!!!
There's this guy named Tony whom I grew up with, and we've been e-mailing back and forth for old time's sake for about a year now.
He keeps teasing me and telling me that he's going to be sneaking around my place and looking in my window to see if he can catch me naked! lolololol
Since this time, I got two great pairs of jeans, and my shopping spree was very comfortable. In a separate shopping spree, I took care of the top half, so I now have a lot of cheery, new tops to take me through the summer and beyond!
Well, this round-girl had better go and see what's in the Indianapolis area that might round her out some more! Talk atcha later! :o)

I don't generally Epinionate naked, myself... (Reply to this comment)
by cathyb53
because my computer chair scratches my bottom too much, but I have done so on occasion - like when I'm on my way to taking my shower and just happen to wander past my computer to see if anything interesting has come up, and there I find myself, 3 hours later - naked, unshowered, and itchy-bummed, with the useful portion of the day flown by.
I have a recommendation for your rash, if it returns with the hot weather. It's prescription (unfortunately, and needlessly, in my not-so-humble opinion), but it's good stuff for fungal or yeast infections (which is what causes those horrendous "heat rashes" in what is so delicately known as "skin folds": Nystatin powder. Cortisone makes my rashes worse instead of better, but the Nystatin powder fixes 'em right up.
And boy, do I empathize with your shopping-trip experience! I too have had these rashes cause so much distress and misery that I have contemplated various drastic actions. (What?? Someone is saying "Lose weight, Round Girl?" How DARE they!? I'll have them know I've suffered from heat rashes since the week of my birth, through times both fat and lean, and it hasn't made a particle of difference!)

Re: yegahhhhgh (Reply to this comment)

Glad you enjoyed this and found it memorable!
I think you did so because of the very way I did it--definitely SHOWING if not also telling!
And the great news is that the irritation hasn't returned!!! :o)

yegahhhhgh (Reply to this comment)
by benho
Well, you were certainly abundantly graphic. Normally, I would prefer more information on the product itself, ot rate a VH but here, I think you have indelibly conveyed your point in a method I will not soon forget no matter how hard I try. For better or worse, next time i'm in the store, I will probably turn to cortizone. Thanks for a very memorable review.

Re: This+isn't+a+glossary (Reply to this comment)
by AinsleyJo
You're right! It isn't the entire glossary--just the part re: skin rashes! Glad you enjoyed this, anyway. Thanks for the compliments. I really wasn't supposed to see this until the weekend of May 18-20, but I had to come here and get something and noticed I had a comment--and such a nice one! Your encouraging words are appreciated! I'll be seeing you in two weekends! :o)

This isn't a glossary (Reply to this comment)
by radioguy
A glossary is a list of key words and phrases relating to a topic, such as skin care. It would also include a brief definition for each.
You definitely are off to a good start here. You have an entry for Ainsley-Jo's Rash, and a lengthy definition/description. Now just add on twenty or thirty more words with their definitions and you'll be all set.
Your writing is fascinating, as always. I'm impressed at the way you seem to work a relative into most of your reviews.

Re: Naked+Computing.. (Reply to this comment)
by AinsleyJo
Hey! Laugh away! I'm not in pain any more--just still naked!!! I loved your projectile coffee story! It reminds me of a story from my growing-up years. If I weren't in a hurry, I'd tell it to you right now! As it is, it looks as if I will be until tonight sometime--or, possibly, tomorrow--closing down here before going on my "vacation." :o)

Re: WOWSERS (Reply to this comment)
by AinsleyJo
I'm crazier than you are, Flame (So, what else is new!?!), because, if I'm just running into a near-by building from my climate-controlled car, I don't always take the time to don my coat, unless it's just sooooooooooooo bitter-cold that I couldn't stand to do otherwise. It's common to see me running into church in just my street clothes (when I've parked directly in front of the building) even when the temperature is slightly below freezing.
One thing you WON'T see is my running into church in nothing but the "outfit" I was born in! :o)

Re: Girl+you+kill+me!+(laughing) (Reply to this comment)
by AinsleyJo
BBW, in your case, I assume stands for Big, Beautiful Woman! I find this to be very accurate!
It could stand for the same thing in my case, too, even though Blubbery Beached Whale might describe me a little better! lolololol
Anyway, Mac Davis has been known to sing a song about me: "She's one whale of a woman!" or did he say something else and was talking/singing about someone else.
Anyway, there's a lot to love when it comes to people like us!
Glad you enjoyed reading this! =)

Those kinds of rashes can be awful! (Reply to this comment)
by MsHooterville
My mom just had something similar this weekend, it must be going around! I suggested that she take a couple of Benadryl capsules. When my daughter was a toddler, she'd get hives once in awhile from something they put on the grass at the playground. Benadryl would clear it up in an hour or so. It seemed to help Mom, too.
