Rubbing raw

I have noticed over the last 7-10 workouts that the front part of my underarm is being rubbed raw. Anything I can do to prevent this or put on it to minimize the rubbing?

    ARe you male or female? Do you know what your underarm is rubbing on - your skin or your suit? The anti-chaffing suggestion flystorms suggested is a good idea - I use "Body Glide" around my neck when wearing a wetsuit. If you are female and the threads of your suit are causing the chafing, try rubbing the body glide on the seams as well as your underarm. Aloe - or an "after sun" aloe product - may help ease the pain after your swim. There's a double problem as it is chaffed and dried out from pool chlorine - so moisturizing will help. Good luck.
