Skin Issues

Hi all,

I have been getting white spots on my face and neck and now I also have these red patches that sting when I get out of the shower and put lotion on them. Is anyone else having these issues? If so, what did your doctor say to do to treat it? I have a doctor's appointment on Friday so I plan to ask then but wanted to see if anyone else was having similar issues.

 Thanks!

  • might want to see a dermatologist.... I had a reddish rash on my back for a month that was not bothering me at all but figured I'd ask my midwife about it. She referred me to a dermatologist and it turned out to be some form of ringworm that is fairly common in pregnant women while their immune systems are weakened. It's no big deal, I just have my hubby put some cream on it everyday, but you should get it checked out.
