View From The Top Posted 15 February, 2011 Share Posted 15 February, 2011 My nipper is suffering from really nasty shin pad rash after both the training sessions and matches. We wash the pads on a regular basis but it doesn't seem to make any difference. Does anyone know of a sensible cure/remedy of know if such a thing as hypoallegebic shin pads exist? Thanks muchly.

dune Posted 15 February, 2011 Share Posted 15 February, 2011 Soz if this a daft question an you don't have to waste a post to do, but are his socks tight enough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baj Posted 15 February, 2011 Share Posted 15 February, 2011 you've probably thought of this already, but a) wear them on the outside or b) wear 2 pairs of socks so as to sandwich the shin pads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skintsaint Posted 15 February, 2011 Share Posted 15 February, 2011 stick a couple of flip flops down the socks instead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eastleighhalo Posted 15 February, 2011 Share Posted 15 February, 2011 the solution is to wear two sets of footy socks with the pads over the first pair and the team socks on top.. problem should be solved... good luck anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deppo Posted 15 February, 2011 Share Posted 15 February, 2011 Talcum powder down the shin pad before playing works for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are brands that seem to cause less allergic problems than others, I seem to remember from when my son was playing Uhlsport was about the least problematic and Adidas was about the worst. Could have changed now. He used to put on some long cotton majority compression socks,then the pads,then the football socks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barney Posted 15 February, 2011 Share Posted 15 February, 2011 My nipper had exactly the same problem we had to use a steroid based cream (daktarin)i think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
