    Default Crotch Roch, Athelete's Foot, Yeast Infection? Good solution...

    Yeast infection can happen anywhere to anybody. I have seen multiple people carry Tinactin and other products and I have tried it too. Recently I came across Lamisil and clearly this product heals a lot faster, and in fewer applications. The other alternative is pure Iodine (surgical quality)but that is harder to work with and stains everything.


    So if you are suffering and get into a situation where nothing seems to work... most likely its yeast. Lamisil has many benefits.

    Holy moly is this what you think about in your spare time? Seriously though I used it for Versicolor, which thre physicians claimed there is no cure for, and it was gone in three days. That was ten years ago and it has never recurred. Powerful stuff.

    Is a crotch "roch" the same as a cock "roach"? I hope not.

    Don't wash your socks with your underwear.

    Plain yogurt (live culture) works great. Paint the affected area & let dry. For ladies utilize the french technique.

    I carry a tube of walgreens generic lamisil in my drug kit. WOO is right the stuff works. Something else that works is baking soda. If I'm sweating and not taking baths I rinse my sweaty areas at night with a little water and baking soda to ward of the hiker funk.

    No joke, just thought I'd put it out there in case that's all a hiker might find when they hit town. It has to be live culture yogurt. Sunlight also helps but that might fall under right time right place opportunity. Baking soda as moytoy wrote is a great alternative.

    Tea Tree Oil is easy to carry and very helpful and has lots of applications, incl yeast infections of any kind. Good for athlete's foot, cuts, etc.
