Do you regularly take half showers between tampons or you're fine with just drying for the most intense days?

I switch between those and Period Panties. Sometimes anything internal makes cramps worse, and honestly, I really dread rummaging around in there to drag it out while covering my hand in blood. It's just not practical to empty/rinse at work and I do 16 hour shifts, so it's not possible to just pop it in for the work day either. I use the cup when I'm not at work and it's past the crampy days. Sometimes tampons + period panties are the only solution for me.
