OK, I don't know who else can help me on this one, except for you ladies.

All right, when I ride I put on body glide and butt butter. But I still seem to get a lot of irritation in between my legs.

When I'm done riding, the area when my leg bends (hard to explain), it so sore I can't even wear panties. It's right along that line between the crotch and the legs that I get really sore.

So now I have this bump in that area. It's raised and painful. Maybe an ingrown hair? But I make sure not to shave that area because I've had that issue before. It hurts to wear underwear (other than a thong that doesn't cover that area)... and hurts to sit. It's really going to hurt to get back in the saddle.

I had a similar issue like this last year, and I went to a dermatologist. He just looked it from far away and said it could be a cyst and I would just have to wait it out. Ugh. He made me feel so yucky when he barely looked at it, that I don't want to go back to a Dr.

All I know is that it hurts and it needs to be gone. I don't know how to get rid of it either.

I also don't know how to prevent it either apparently, because it's back even though I slather on stuff down there.

Finally... I haven't changed saddles or cycling shorts. Everything is the same as it's always been. And honestly, the pain between my legs is worse this year than last year. And it's the same saddle.
