Hello and welcome to HCM
Thanks for your query
Chances of infection with bacteria is good as there is swelling and pain . Viral infection may also be there. You need to meet your consulting Doctor to get the culture and sensitivity done. During pregnancy medications must be taken under the advice of the consultant gynaecologist only.
Take care n be healthy.
