Hi, From history it seems that there might be having boil on the part and now spreading in surrounding part with cellulitis. You require one course of antibiotic and anti-inflammatory medicine course as having this type of infection is not advisable during pregnancy. Consult your doctor and get examined. Ok and take care.
