Underboob rash (intertrigo) is one of the most painful and persistent dermatological conditions affecting women in the UK today.
Many in the UK mistake it for simple friction or excessive sweating. They describe it as "slight redness" that seems harmless… and often leave it untreated.
But here's the truth: If you don't treat intertrigo within the first 2-3 weeks, it becomes a chronic condition that returns every single summer for the rest of your life.
Without proper treatment, simple skin fold rashes can develop into:
- Cellulitis (deep tissue infection requiring hospitalization)
- Abscesses that need surgical drainage
- Secondary bacterial infections
- Sepsis (life-threatening blood infection)
Don't risk your health when you can get rid of skin fold rash in as little as one week!
So what's it all about?
Intertrigo is a fungal and bacterial infection that occurs in skin folds where moisture becomes trapped between skin surfaces.
It appears as raw, red, weeping patches that smell like yeast or rotting meat. The affected skin becomes macerated (wet and white), develops painful cracks, and burns with every movement.
Up to 1 in 5 women over 40 experience chronic intertrigo.
Who's at risk?
- Women during and after menopause (hormonal changes)
- Plus-size individuals with skin folds
- Diabetics and pre-diabetics (high blood sugar feeds yeast)
- Pregnant women (increased sweating and skin folds)
- People living in hot, humid climates
- Anyone who sweats heavily
- Sedentary office workers
And if you're in that list, chances are you're already making one of following two mistakes that are making it worse.

The odour was the thing I was most embarrassed about. Never told anyone, not even my husband. That cleared up within days. Still using it to finish the full course but I already feel like myself again.

The part about the pores being open in the shower finally made it click for me. I always applied cream after drying off. No wonder nothing worked. Been using this for 12 days and the redness has almost completely gone.

I've had this on and off for about four years. Tried Canesten so many times I've lost count. I ordered two bars about three weeks ago and I genuinely cannot believe the difference. The smell was gone within the first week. I actually cried a little.
