Suggest Treatment For Rashes On The Thighs During Pregnancy

Hello. I am 18 weeks pregnant. Yesterday I noticed that a rash was starting to form on my inner thighs, and then tonight it has gotten worse. It has spread all down my legs and even my feet...It s red, bumpy, itchy, and occasionally burns. Should I be concerned? What should I do?

Dermatologist 's  Response
Firstly I would like to know whether there is any history of fever , drug intake or any other ailment? You should consult a skin specialist for the rash as it has to be evaluated properly. For the time being you can take tablet chlorpheniramine maleate daily at night and use calamine lotion over the affected areas.
