Q: What are these painful blisters on my stomach?

I woke up today with about three painful blisters on my stomach.  I had one last night but i popped it and thought nothing of it.  But now there's more and I'm starting to worry, I've had the chickenpoxs before which started with to blisters on my breast similar to these but they weren't painful. I had them when I was twelve and now I'm sixteen....what could this possibly be?

sounds like shingles which is caused by a virus that stores itself in your body after having the chicken pox and can occur at anytime in your life after you have chicken pox. look up more info online and contact your doctor, if it is you will get really horribly sick, so see your doctor asap. Hope this is not what you have. Good luck! Reply
