Csection planned for Wed and rash down below

I am due to have a section on Wed and was told by my midwife to tend to my 'lady garden' in preparation. She advised against shaving so I used a hair removal cream instead.

However, it has left me with a very painful rash/burn right across my bikini line. Do you think they will still be able to do the section?

Any tips on how to calm it down? I nearly hit the roof when I tried to apply the after cream that came with it. So far all I've done is apply cold flannels which help to take the heat out but I'm keen to get rid of the redness/rash asap incase they wont operate on broken skin.

I expect they will still do op as it shouldnt be infected but i'd go straight to gp and get something to put on it as it might not help post op if u got painful rash nr ceasar scar.
