I was experiencing vaginal pain the other day and the doctor took a peek and told me that I have a yeast infection.  I used vagicaine to help ease the pain and I then noticed blisters around my vaginal area.  Is this just a normal allergic reaction or could I have a more severe STD such as herpes?
Hello and thank you for your question. Blisters can be both an allergic reaction and a sign of a herpes infection. Herpes infections are very painful. Yeast infections can be irritating and itchy but are rarely severely painful. It would be a good idea for you to return to your doctor while you have the blisters and get tested for herpes infection. You will need to know whether you have this because if you do, you may need treatment for it, you may have recurrences, and you would need to know how to prevent giving it to other people. See your doctor soon. Thank you for using Chat Doctor.
