“The warm and recessed area is full of sebaceous glands which secrete sebum,” says Dr. Glatter. “Sebum provides an ideal hiding place for Staph aureus and Tinea capitis and corporis bacteria, and if not cleaned daily, may start to produce a musty odor.” Wash behind your ears daily.

Great overview of keeping your body particularly your toes ears back and feet
Don’t forget in between the toes! Good article! Should have mentioned the very personal area at the leg juncture. Also, at 360lbs..I recommend the big people using a hand towel with good texture for scrubbing. Soap it up and drape it over your back. It will be long enough to give you a grip with both hands that makes it easy to scrub ones’ back well. (Over the shoulder and side to side.) Well, take care.
A loofa or scrub brush feels better and helps with dead skin removal.Also it is great for circulation.
That’s a excellent information about using the hand towels for us bigger people. I will have to remember that next time. THANKS 🙂
I’ll print this out ant give it to my teen age son….
I use a “back brush” – a long handled brush for my back and hard to reach places. The brushes sold at Walmart are good quality – durable.
Yep – with a “Made in China” label on it…99.9% of all of the items sold at Walfart is made in China as we speak.
Thats crazy and we could make and sell here
That is not true Joe Wong.
Not true.
But then, you only think as you are told
I challenge you to Walk thru Walmart and check who made things. Those little “made in China” stickers are everywhere, it is almost 100 percent china and I know because I can read When I was young there was manufacturing everywhere Now there are so many dead towns across this country. it’s sad. No future for our grandchildren. Why has our vaccine’s come from another country why is baby formula and baby meds and antibiotics all coming from other country’s. On a plane you have to put your own mask on first in order to safely help others why does our country not put us first before they constantly help other country’s. Our government has become a business that doesn’t care about us anymore.
For us women with large breasts, wash underneath use plenty of soap and water, but pat dry. I’ve found as we age the skin under our breasts is thinner more delicate there. I use a blow dryer set on warm, and blow dry the area, and skin isn’t irritated . Don’t forget those armpits, I rather use a blow dryer, sometimes those little hairs you think you’ve taken care get upset if you use a towel, I’ve been there.
I only saw 2, what’s the others?
Me to where is the others
I dont dry off at all!! just air dry and put power under the breasts and other parts!
Not talc!!
Also for larger people, if you have folds of skin below the tummy area, make sure you wash well in the folds too. Similar situation as mentioned earlier about larger breasted woman. Dry well and perhaps add a bit of corn starch powder to keep it dry throughout the day. There are products out that can be used in those areas to avoid friction rubs that irritate the skin and then may require a bit of hydrocortisone cream to calm the irritation down if you didn’t use the friction rub cream and the skin became irritated.
I am a large breasted woman and I also have a fold on my stomach. I have endured breakouts at these places in hot weather when I sweat. I have discovered that if I use an antipersperant in these areas that it takes care of the problem.
AMMEN’S MEDICATED POWDER IS THE BEST THING TO USE UNDER THE BREAST AND IN THOSE FOLDS.
underneath your finger and toe nails
inside and behind the ears
how do I clean feet without a rag or scraping them?
I shower, yet often neglect my feet
Should that happen & they win I would leave this country!!!👎🏿👎🏿👎🏿👎🏿👎🏿
So how does one clean a very deep inny belly button?
