How to prevent/heal chafing

i recently started a job where i wear a suit, and the pants are extremely irritating to the area where my thighs and balls meet. some days its perfectly fine, and today (over the course of one day) it chafed so much that it’s practically raw skin there now. how can i prevent this from happening *in dress pants*


ps. i’ve tried compression shorts under every outfit and it used to work, but not in my slacks. today i wore spandex boxers and it was unbearable, i literally cant walk at the moment

Chafing hurts.  Get some Gold Bond powder, does the trick to prevent chafing.  And spandex isn't breathable.  Get cotton underwear.  Use the powder and more breathable underwear, you should be good to go.

Gold Bond is the brand, purchase just about anywhere (any store in the US) or online at amazon.  Inexpensive too.
