Is Itchy Chicken Pox Blisters In Vagina A Cause For Concern?
Hello there, I have contracted a case of Chicken-Pox from fellow family members, and I have been growing concerned about it. Yesterday (Which was day two of my present condition) I found two small blisters inside of my vagina, they didn't have the exact same pearly effect that the blisters had on my stomach, but they itch all the same. They are small, and are a cloudy white? This concerns me greatly, but I have never had anything like this on or in my vagina before I caught the Chicken Pox virus. I am Twenty and this is the first time I've knowingly had this virus. Any answer is appreciated, thank you!

Hello,
Thank you for posting your query to HCM,
So, what I am understanding you are in your second day of blisters from the chicken-pox infection.
At this point, its difficult to say if those blisters have been there before the infection, of have appeared with the infection.
My guess is, you have those blisters from the infection, which in normal to have in the mucosa. They will last for about a week, and should heal after.
If you still have them after 2 weeks, then consider seeing a gynecologist and doing the appropriate labs he will recommend to rule that out.
If I was your caring doctor, meanwhile, I would recommend to try not scratch the blisters, apply anti-itch powder on them, an take any antihistamine medicine like cetirizine, clorpheniramine, ect, to help with the itch.
Hope this is helpful.
If you have other questions, let me know.
Take care,
Dr. Papaqako
