If you have jock itch, it's best to follow a simple daily skincare routine. This will help clear it up and may prevent it from coming back.

Other things to do that help prevent jock itch

  • Keep the groin area clean and dry
  • Dry off completely after bathing, especially between the folds of skin
  • Wear clean, cotton underwear and loose-fitting pants
