Hi,

Thanks for posting your query.

Appearance of red, swollen and painful labia can be a sign of bacterial infection. As pregnancy is associated with reduced immunity and water retention, you are susceptible to various infections.

The symptoms concern me and I would advise you to consult a gynecologist at the earliest. Antibiotic therapy with safer drugs like amoxicillin is entailed. I would also suggest you to get your blood sugars tested to rule out gestational diabetes.

I hope your query has been answered. I will be available for your follow up queries.

Regards

Hi.

Thanks again for following up.

You may use Ointment Neosporin for local application. It can be applied thrice a day for at least 7 days.

Wipe clean the remnant by a clean cotton/dry cloth before next application.

In addition anti-inflammatory analgesic such as calpol 500mg tablet three times a day for 3-5 days will give added benefits.

I hope this information would be both informative and helpful for you. Let me know if you have other concerns.
If all your queries are answered, please close this discussion.

Regards
