One of my guy runner friends ended up with mastitis, an infection generally nursing mothers get from cracks around the nipples and benign S. aureus from skin gets in and causes infection. So the only thing I'd worry about would be that... not sure how he got it or why, I didn't ask for details... Maybe your bandaids are preventing nipple disaster? who knows.

Just doesn't sound very hygienic to me.<br /><br />This summer I have been having a little bit of that issue -- chafing. Seems like every shirt I wear is irritating me and same with my shorts. <br /><br />Sometimes I wish I could get away running naked. At times I've ditched the shirt, but I am no longer twenty-something and my chest doesn't exactly look like a Men's Health cover model either. Oh well... cooler weather is around the corner.Eddie Gaulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18151446665700309292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1963402677916553399.post-46339314992441422642015-07-22T04:42:20.402-05:002015-07-22T04:42:20.402-05:00No, I'm milk-free, and yes, very unattractiveNo, I'm milk-free, and yes, very unattractiveJim ... 50after40https://www.blogger.com/profile/14165153305680378261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1963402677916553399.post-65998092319251949872015-07-22T04:41:13.926-05:002015-07-22T04:41:13.926-05:00That was kind of my thought Kathee, I wasn't s...That was kind of my thought Kathee, I wasn't sure if an infection could start under them or something.

Not only do the girls need air (though I think the bandaids are supposed to breathe), but I wonder if the adhesive is bad for your skin for prolonged periods.<br /><br />I don't run every day, so I don't have the same "economies of scale" you have. But maybe you could put these on your wish list so you'd have an ample supply whenever you need them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
