Ballitis
There are many related terms... ballitis, swampass, fromunda, etc. But they all refer to that clammy feeling a guy can get in "the land down under" when things get a little warm. It can definitely be uncomfortable and possibly embarrassing if things get too bad and you get that vertical sweat line on the back of your khakis. The problem can also lead to chafing if you are moving around a lot, which can be quite painful.
The best remedy is just to stay dry by applying some
talcum powder, cornstarch or potato starch to the area after you get out of the shower. You can also sprinkle a little on other areas like your underarms or feet, if you tend to sweat a lot. In addition to keeping you dry most products also have a nice scent that will also keep you from becoming overly funky!
