does anyone get any chafing/heat  or anykind of rash  caused by hanging or loose skin?    if so  where?  and  have you gone to the dermatologist?  and what did they prescribe if you went?

Sadly I haven't, but my suggestion is

1) take pictures
2) see the doctor EVERY time this happens
3) document document document....

because this is a problem people have with hanging skin and COULD lead to insurance paying for a panniculectomy

I had these issues pre-op but alas, I haven't had a SINGLE one since surgery.

I get those rashes all the time. They are under my belly the spare tire part. I have tried everything. My dr gave my mizoral cream and nystop power. I find what works very weel is Calden powder. It comes in a pink container. I think thats the name. Its hard to find in the stores but I know Walgreens carries it online. For me it works better than Goldbond. Those rashes are the worst.
