Can you get pain from a yeast infection?

Answer 1

Yes, you can get blisters with a yeast infection.

Here are some personal experiences:

After spending the past 3 days worrying about this myself - yes you can! My gynecologist tested me for herpes "to be safe" and my heart has been in my stomach just trying to wrap my brain around that - because all of my symptoms and what I was seeing and feeling led me to think the worst. I've had yeast infections before, this one I got at the same time I had an upper respiratory infection and whatever combination of drugs or stress or whatever that my body was under gave me the WORST ever yeast infection that took a pill and a cream that I had to use for 3 days to finally get rid of it. It brought along with it blisters, that looked like sores - they were INSANELY painful, to the point where I couldn't walk, and it's taken about 7-10 days to finally get some relief. What I can recommend is to ask your doctor for 2% lidocaine cream - you have to reapply about every 4 hours - but it's a life saver, and defiantly for the first 5 days, ask for pain pills - that's the only way I was able to walk, let alone put clothes on - and especially sleep. It looks God awful, it feels a million times worse - but do not read the stuff about herpes, it will just make you depressed on top of it!

You can get blisters with a yeast infection. I've gotten them a 3 times. My yeast infections were caused by allergic reactions to soaps and such. Each time I got them it was right after I had used something new on that area. The first time I went to a Doctor Who was an idiot and even though I told her there was no possible way I had herpes, she insisted on testing me for it. Guess what? I don't have herpes. Anyway the second time I got the blisters I went to another doctor who told me it was just a really bad yeast infection and gave me a prescription. It went away quicker when I didn't have a moron scraping and swabbing it and actually got the right medication. I would suggest if you have this, go to your doc and get prescription strength meds because if its this bad the otc stuff probably won't work.

AnswerNo, never heard of that ever. I would think that maybe an std, or something. See your doctor. AnswerI'm allergic to the clotrimazole usually used to treat a yeast infection and this happens to me. Get checked by the doctor or clinic. AnswerBlisters are a symptom of genital herpes. Outbreaks can be much like a yeast infection, though with blisters that eventually heal over (thus ending the outbreak). As the rest said, SEE YOUR DOCTOR.

Answer

Yes, you can get blisters with a yeast infection, though it is not very common. I have had this happen both times I've had a yeast infection; once randomly during a yeast infection, and another after i used an over-the-counter medication (Miconazole) to try to cure it. I get a resistant strain of yeast infection and need prescription medication (terconazole) for it. The blisters are very similar to herpes and i got tested both times only to come back with negative results. The main difference is that the yeast infection blisters cause discomfort, whereas herpes blisters cause pain. For the blisters to go away, i was given the prescription antibiotic doxycyline, and they disappeared in a few days. The second time, however, since the gyno was unsure, i was given the antibiotic ciprofloxacin, which didn't help although the blisters went away by themselves after around 5 days. Since the symptoms are so similar, and yeast infection blisters seem to be quite uncommon (my gyno had never seen them before), it is best to go to a doctor to find out for sure.

Answer

I've had a blistering yeast infection. No doctor will prescribe you antibiotics for it since it can only be helped with 2 diflucans one of which you will take and the other in 3 days. Oh yes you will need pain pills because this is the only way you can urinate without crying, walk without wanting to die and dress yourself. No steroid creams, antibiotics or std medication is needed and may hurt yourself in the long run. You do have an underlying disease if this happens. I am a diabetic and stress, not eating right etc brought it on for me. Have yourself checked out by your doctor for Diabetes since they do get them often. Hope this helps

I am praying that I don't have GH as well! This is making me hopeful! I have been crying and praying non stop...waiting for my results back. The dr. said it LOOKS like GH, but I've looked online at pictures and they seem so much worse than my blisters. I have a discharge that is similar to a yeast infection. I'm praying that I'm healthy and that I do not have GH. My partner doesn't have any signs...so we are both confused as to how we've been honest and only with each other...and only one of us has an outbreak. God, I pray that I am clean and that I do not have GH. This is devastating and really scary. Also, my dr. said that even if the result comes out negative to GH...it doesn't mean that I don't have them. She said it's common for the results to be negative...and that they typically diagnose based on VISUAL observation. This all just sounds like a lose lose situation. I hope this is a big mistake. I notice that when I have a burst of discharge...the blisters seem to burn more. My first symptoms were pain during urination, and cramping in my stomach...some discharge...I thought I had a bladder infection...then I ended up getting blisters a day or two later...the blisters have been here for a week now. Im on a prescription for both a bladder infection (for a week now) and GH (for 2 days now). The pain during urination and the cramps are gone. The blisters and discharge are still apparent. Pray for me.

Answer:

This past week I went to the doctors because I had itching, burning, and little red bumps around my vagina opening and around it. It felt like little paper cuts every time I would walk. My vulva was very dry also. I could hardly walk, it burned when I went to the bathroom and I was so depressed. He told me I genital herpes but it seemed impossible to me. I was scared and me and my boyfriend were crying all the time. Finally I took a blood test and this morning my test results came back negative, thank God. I really thought that I had it so I just wanted to post this telling everyone that you may have to signs but don't think the worst. These posting helped me before I found my test results and gave me a little comfort knowing that some doctors can misdiagnose these things. I still don't know what I have but a yeast infection or some type of infection sounds a lot better then having herpes.

I just posted my symptoms (second post up from this)...and I got my results back...they were NEGATIVE!!! My prayers were answered. I was so relieved,

You guys have no idea how much this post is making me feel a little better. im 19 years old and I just found out that I'm pregnant. me and my bf have been sexually active now for a while and I've had no signs of anything bad down there until just recently. My bf went to DC for a family vacation and when he came back we had sex. after we had sex he complained that he itched a little. a couple days later I felt burning when i peed and thought i had a yeast infection and might have passed it on to him. I help off on sex from then on and then a couple days later a little blister appeared on the inner lip of my vagina..then i found another and another and then there was 5 of them. they're all in different spots.. one is closer to my butt then my vagina.. i freaked out and couldn't get into the dr. until today. she took one look and said "what if i told you i think its herpes" they did a swab test and the results come back Thursday. I'm so scared. I've already been crying all day. I'm hoping and praying its not GH but there's always a possibility. after reading this post im having a little more hope. I'm nervous. please pray for me.

Answer 2

Yes, but the degree of pain will vary. In fact, most yeast infections are not as much painful as they are annoying and uncomfortable. Symptoms include itching or soreness around the vaginal area, and sometimes, discomfort when urinating or an unpleasant discharge that is whitish in color. A yeast infection is not a sexually transmitted disease, and most women and young girls will get one at sometime in their lives. It is easily treated and your doctor can give you medication to get rid of it. I enclose a link to a reliable website with further information.

Answer 3

Of course! Yes, the infection does not affect your fertility.

Answer 4

If you mean bumps in your vagina, not likely but if you mean that your discharges is in form of bumps, probably white and cheese-like then that is one of the few symptoms of yeast infection.

Answer 5

You can experience some pain well dealing with a yeast infection.It should not be to painful though if you think anything is not right I would see a doctor

Answer 6

No you can not get chancres from a yeast infection.
