Yeast infection on inner thigh????

I had a C-section last Thursday and I've been wearing the huge hospital pads...I started noticing some itchiness on my inner thigh right where your underwear line goes. I lifted up my leg earlier to check it out and there's all these white bumps and it's red...could it be a yeast infection or some kind of rash from the pads?

It could definitely be a yeast infection. Try to go see your doc. They can tell you for sure what it is and give you appropriate medication for it.

it could be from the pad...i had to wear that smurf too..I had an emergency c section as well, bubt never got what you're getting. You could be allergic to the type of underwear you're wearing maybe

Ok thank you I wasn't for sure if it was or not....I wasn't sure if yeast infection bumps were red or white.

I brought home a big ol pack of hospital undies because they were so comfy and didn't hurt my incision..so maybe that's what it is.

No I've just been using them right out of the package because that's how they had me using them at the hospital   Idk whether I should put cortizone on it or monistat lol
