What it Does Chafing is a common skin condition that occurs when skin repeatedly rubs against other skin, or against your clothing,” explains Miami-based board-certified dermatologist Dr. Anna Chacon, an expert with My Psoriasis Team. This skin-on-skin or skin-on-cloth friction can lead to areas of irritation, she explains. “In mild chafing cases, the skin may become red and tender, but in more severe cases, the constant rubbing can cause the skin to break down, resulting in rawness and even wounds,” she says. For the record: Chafing doesn’t discriminate based on body shape or size. It can happen to people of any weight or shape wherever their skin meets their clothes, or their body parts rub up against each other, Dr. Chacon says. “Chafing isn't a symptom that an individual needs to lose weight or change their body shape,” she says. “People of all sizes and shapes can experience chafing.” Not just those with so-called chub. Chafing is typically caused by moving and grooving in warm, humid environments. But that doesn’t mean you need to park your ass on a bench all summer long. All you need to do is incorporate a few preventative measures.
