A vesicle is a small, fluid-filled lesion that is typically less than 1 centimeter in diameter. It is often caused by conditions such as infections (like herpes or varicella), inflammatory processes, or allergic reactions. Vesicles can appear on the skin or mucous membranes and may be associated with itching or pain. Their presence often indicates underlying dermatological issues that may require further evaluation.
In medical terminology, a vesicle and a blister refer to the same thing, which is a small fluid-filled pocket that forms on the skin. Vesicle is the scientific term while blister is the more common colloquial term for this skin lesion.
A raised lesion less than 1/5 in (5 mm) across and filled with a clear fluid. Vesicles that are more than 1/5 in (5 mm) across are called bullae or blisters. These lesions may may be the result of sunburns, insect bites, chemical irritation
Enzymes might be found inside a vesicle.
When the cell membrane invaginates and pinches off, it forms a vesicle. This process is called endocytosis. The vesicle can then transport molecules or substances into or out of the cell.
Endocytosis involves three main stages: initiation, vesicle formation, and vesicle fusion. In the initiation stage, the cell membrane invaginates to form a pocket around the target molecule. During vesicle formation, the pocket pinches off to form a vesicle containing the target molecule. Finally, the vesicle fuses with intracellular compartments to deliver its cargo.
vesicle is a raised skin lesion that contain serous fluid. this serous fluid may contain traces of blood or pus. while pustules are raised skin lesion that contain only pus.
A pustule is a raised lesion filled with pus, which is usually a sign of infection or inflammation. A vesicle is a small, fluid-filled blister that can result from various causes such as burns, allergic reactions, or viral infections.

Depends on which area of the system one is referring to. If it is an open wound, it is drainage.
The small blister of chickenpox, like all blisters, is referred to in medical terminology as a "vesicle."
A vesicle is a raised hemispherical lesion less than 0.5 cm in diameter,contain clear fluid while a bulla is raised hemispherical lesion more than 0.5 cm in diameter contain clear fluid.a bulla can contain pus when it is termed as pustular bulla. Dr muhammad fayyaz ali, karachi,pakistan.
