Question

Is apple cider vinegar a natural cure for jock itch and can I apply coconut oil if it is completely dry and causes burning sensation?

Expert Answer

I would not apply coconut oil as it may irritate. It causes heat and could irritate. Apple cider vinegar can be a natural cure, but only in the early stages.
