Guys, I'm not a cyclist but I just bought a pair of knicks on the advice of a doctor. Why? To prevent chafing while I get some skin problems sorted.
Do all of these things have this padding in the bottom? Because all of the ones in the store did.
I'm going to look like I shit my pants.

You don't need cycling shorts, that's retarded. You need "compression shorts" which are sold at any decent sporting goods store (or walmart). These wick moisture, keep things from chafing, and have no padding.
Discovered them when I started paintballing.

I was wondering if maybe he meant that but his being non-white or non-cyclist made him specifically suggest cyclist stuff.
They definitely don't chafe?
>chafing
tights will help. also smear vasaline on the sore spot.
If that doesn't work, then the sores are bacterial infections. These have to be treated with antibiotic ointment until they heal. And I'd smear antibiotic ointment on the area before and after each ride, to stop it from returning.

Cheers for your input, all. Yeah I'm having infection problems. Been suggested an anti-bacterial wash, given five courses of antibiotics so far. (Not in a row.)
The butt cheeks chafing might be an issue. The sore I'm recovering from right now is sort of at the bottom of my butt crack.
