I have OTC hydrocortisone and prescription 2.5% as well, I use that immediately after bad chafing/redness and then First Aid A+D at night. I might also experiment with where and how I 'tuck' my genitals, I always pull everything straight up but who knows. Mark
ExOfficio is good underwear and very cheap because it lasts for a long time, I till have pairs that I wear regularly that I have had since 2013. A few older pairs I retired but they are the best underwear on the planet and my daily wear. I don't have other underwear anymore that I wear, I frequently use lotion and always use Bike Glide or Body Glide and it has so far not degraded my underwear in any significant way.

Certain things are worth spending money on and good underwear is crucial and ExO is the best, ATMO. Comfortable, moisture wicking and long lasting. Plus I take fewer pairs of underwear while traveling now because they keep the funk at bay and are quick to dry so I can wear and wash easily without having to worry if they will be dry in the morning.
