Suggest Treatment For Rashes On Inner Thighs

My last month of pregnancy I developed an rash on both sides of my inner thighs. Very itchy seemed irritated more by panty lines. I applied baby diaper rash hoping to ease the itch but now that I had my son I can actually see the area and it looks horrible.

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

Discoloration and change in pigmentation can occur as a result of inflammation to an area, in this case a rash.

If the itching is still present the use of an oral antihistamine and topical steroid cream would be helpful.

Once the rash itself resolves the skin pigmentation should start to change back towards normal.

I hope this helps
