Women's Health Will Blisters Grow in the Vagina?

The answer is yes. The inner wall of the vagina in a healthy state is smooth and moist, light pink mucosal tissue. However, under certain special physiological or pathological conditions, blister-like bulges may indeed appear. It is not a fatal matter, but don’t take it seriously, let alone make random guesses and use medications.

A while ago, I treated a 24-year-old girl. Her eyes were swollen when she entered the clinic. She said that when she took a shower the day before, she put her finger in to wash it and felt a blister as big as half a grain of rice in her vagina. She was so scared that she couldn't sleep all night. She checked Baidu all night and thought she had cancer or a heart disease. She ended up doing a colposcopy to get extra points. The secretion examination showed that it was an ordinary vaginal wall retention cyst - to put it bluntly, the small glands on the vaginal mucosa were blocked by secretions. It was the same as the whiteheads on the face. It was neither painful nor itchy, and did not affect life. There was no need to prescribe medicine. A re-examination was enough every six months. The girl walked lightly. There was a patient who was even more unjust before. During a physical examination at a private institution, he was told that he had a bunch of blisters in his vagina and needed to be operated on immediately. He came crying and came to check, but the result was normal vaginal folds. He spent hundreds of dollars for the examination in vain and was scared for several days.

Of course, not all blisters are so harmless, and it depends on the situation. For example, after some people have sex that is too intense and the friction is too harsh, the vaginal mucosa is irritated, and a few small edema-type blisters may appear. Generally, there is no other feeling, and it will disappear by itself in a day or two, without even needing to take care of it.

If the blisters feel painful to the touch, or even rupture and form ulcers, along with fever and pain in the inguinal lymph nodes, then you should be alert to whether it is genital herpes. This is mostly spread through sexual contact. You must take antiviral drugs in time, and you must pay attention to improving your immunity to avoid recurrence. Others are caused by inflammation. For example, when fungal vaginitis is severe, the entire vaginal mucosa will be red, swollen and congested, and a bunch of dense blister-like protrusions will appear. Usually, the vulva will be itchy to the point of sitting still, and the leucorrhea will be like tofu. If the inflammation is controlled, these small protrusions will naturally disappear.

It’s quite interesting to say that many people don’t understand their own body structure at all. The vagina is not a smooth plastic tube. It has many folds for elastic expansion. Inexperienced people can easily mistakenly think that it is a growth when it feels lumpy. If you really feel an abnormal bulge in your vagina, don't rush to judge yourself first, and don't just buy all kinds of lotions to wash it in. Instead, it will disrupt the normal flora and cause disease. If there is no discomfort, you can observe it for two or three days. If it does not go away or if there is pain, itching, or abnormal leucorrhea, go directly to the gynecology department for a consultation. You can find out in a few minutes. Most cases are minor problems, so there is no need to be mentally burdened.
