Blisters

O.K. - by now I must sound like some obsessed worry monger. . . .but here is the thing (and I posted a bit about this on another thred, sorry for the duplication) - I was all relaxed, decided to clean there, also decided to take a mirror and just look - and yup the same. . . except. . . I appear to have a blister, just one, but that is very very odd for me - I read about fever blisters elsewhere here, but what are those? This is not read like a blister, is the same colour as the skin there (outer vulva) but sure protruded, no discharge from it, and all I did was see the one, and cleaned it really well! I have had no fever, no infection, have been keeping rather over clean to avoid infections. Could this just be an ingrown hair? Is that just a niaive question? Anyone else experience this - I must sound worry obsessed, but sure did not expect to see this blister - I mean I will be seeing my Doc this week and have her see, but I am certain that it was not there last week, I did not see it, and I think if she did she would have commented on it. . . this is strange and unexpected.

I don't know, of course, for sure what your blisters might be, but the only time I ever had blisters there was about 6wks after childbirth and it was a staff infection. Started out with one blister, then a couple more. I didn't run a fever either, but did find that I was quite tired and would rest a lot (but thought was just having a more difficult time of recovery) Before my doctor appt. - I did not connect my blisters with rash on baby that was staff also!!

Just my experience, but call you doctor!
Good luck.

Thanks, I have several questions formy doc, one being about this blister thing. . . .I never thought it might be a staff infection. Thanks for your reply. I have a lot of question going on in my head about this, and some of them not so nice. I am hoping it is just a medical matter.

I have read on here that others have had stitches that have not dissolves and it caused a bump before it pushed through. Sometimes the doc has had to remove one. I would be sure to ask the doc when you go.

Some of the stitches used dissolve slower than others and take a long time to push their way out, or to fall out. Maybe that is what you are looking at?
