What Could Itchy Rashes On The Buttocks In Pregnant Woman Suggest?
I have a rash that itches real bad and its about the size of a quarter on my left buttock.I am 4 months pregnant. I I have had it in the past but it only last for about a week then goes away. I have been married for 13 years and me and my husband are faithful to each other. I asked the doctor about it a few years ago and she said it was a reaction or dry skin. I had std test a few years ago and everything came out fine.What could the cause be?

Hi,
It may be Tinea corporis.
Kindly consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment.
Antifungal cream like clotrimazole cream may be applied.
Antifungal cap itroconazole 100 mg twice a day for few week may be taken.
Antihistaminics like desloratidine 5 mg daily might improve the itching.
Avoid soap bath.
I hope this would help.
Thanks.
