Is Itchy Pimples On Back During Pregnancy A Cause For Concern?
Hi doctor, I m 24yrs old and 8 months pregnant. I noticed a few itchy pimples on my back later it started spreading,now my back is full of pimples which are itchy and painful. It has spread to my breast, few on tummy and face. Now I have such big pimples on my labia mojora and intense itching on labia minora,this increases during night. Is this something I should be worried about? Is this PUPPP or cholestasis or something dangerous to fetus? Please help.. Thank you.

Hello ma'am and welcome.
Sometimes due to a hormonal imbalance acne can result, but as it seems to be increasing and causing discomfort to you, I think it would be best to consult your doctor for an elaborate evaluation.
I cannot comment on other causes as of now, especially without investigations ma'am.
Best wishes.
