Hello I m 39 weeks pregnant and I just noticed I have a rash on the side of my vagina. Some parts looks really dry and others look like blisters. It really doesn t bother me but it looks bad. I have a doctor appointment this Monday. But I m scared I won t be able to deliver my baby natural. I been tested for std and everything is fine. So should I call my doctor today and let her know what s going on or just wait until Monday.
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Perhaps you have fungal infection of the skin of that area. Heat, sweat, occlusion and humidity are factors that favor growth of the fungus. I suggest you to apply an OTC topical antifungal e.g clotrimazole 1% cream , twice daily for a few days.
Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care
