14 Simple Steps to Get Rid of Jock Itch

2.    Keep the groin area dry

If this seems like an especially pedantic follow up to the last simple step, good, it should do, and if you’re reading this and thinking that it’s stating the obvious, well done to you. Unfortunately, however, the actual cleaning stage of personal hygiene is not always followed up with a careful period of drying time. It’s so simple yet so often ignored.

One reason could be down to embarrassment in the locker room, with people wanting to cover themselves up as quickly as possible. Everyone is different and anyone who laughs at the size of someone else’s manhood or the shape of someone else’s butt is probably feeling pretty self-conscious about their own body. Ignore it and put the towel to good use.

Sometimes, failing to dry off properly can be down to pure laziness, and for this, there can be no excuse. If your clothes are spotting with wet patches as you put them on, you’re not actually dry.
