Should I continue HPV vaccination 2nd dose after getting a rash on the torso and being doagnosed with pityriasis rosea after the 1st dose?
Patient: HPV vaccine and Pityriasis rosea 8 years ago after giving the birth I was diagnosed with cervical abnormalities and tested positive for HPV. I have undergone a laser treatment. However, recently I have had again a positive test for HPV and my gynecologist insisted that I should have HPV4 vaccine. He thinks that recurrence of HPV it is due to my low immunity and that having a vaccine is the only way how I can get some HPV antibodies. About 4 weeks ago I had my first shot, thought I initially felt ok, now I have developed a rash over my torso as well as cheeks!! and was diagnosed with Pityriasis rosea. I don t know what to do about the second shot. Should I wait until this rash is cleared (it could be up to 8-12 weeks)? Or should I go ahead and risk more problems or just not to continue with this vaccine? Doctor: Hello,Thanks for the query,P roseae is a response to any stress.Its not a severe condition,You can continue with the vaccinePlease meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis.Let me know if you have any other doubt.you can ask a direct question to me on this forum, following the below link.https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.healthcaremagic.com/doctors/dr-rahul-kumar/64818Wishing__;!!Mih3wA!SBzm6_kI6hCZ58EPH6N_05MFfiPbxWXT0a2TJCdFQObRWm5mV5ur7hUOMa8clQ$  you a good health.Thank you
