Preventive advice:

  • Shave carefully:  Use a clean razor and shave in the direction of hair growth.

  • Choose breathable clothing:  it’s best to wear cotton underwear; avoid tight synthetic fabrics.

  • Practice good hygiene:  wash yourself daily, especially after sweating, and dry yourself thoroughly.

  • Avoid sharing personal items:  razors, towels, and clothing can spread fungus or bacteria.

  • Use mild products:  fragrance-free soaps and lotions reduce irritation.
