Blister On Vagina Walls. A Thin White Discharge. What Is It?

Hello, I have what looks like a bllister on the outside of my vagina walls. The blisters have know color and are not painful. I went to the ER last night and the doctor on call said it looked like herpes but they didnt bust it or take any fluid from it. I do however have a thin white discharge also. My question how can you determine what it is if you haven't tested the fluid.

Hi,

It is possible to diagnose the illness based on history. This would be asking you questions about the disease. Examples are: is it painful? does it itch. By asking questions like this, it is possible to narrow down the possibilities to nearly zero.

However, a test is needed to confirm the diagnosis. What you should do is to consult a MD medicine and ask him to do a tzank smear. After the tzanc smear, you will be able to tell if the person has herpes or not.

Hope this helps.
