Dr. Amit Patel answered

Specializes in Urogynecology

Need a GYN evaluatn: Difficult to know, but you need to have an evaluation to check to see if you have a benign, inflammatory skin condition (such a rash), or if you have some type of infection. Most likely, the problem is benign and can be treated easily, but you will need to identify the problem first through a proper evaluation.
