Can I get Herpes from panties

Hi
So I was with a girl 3 weeks ago and she too off her panties and went to the bathroom then I took her panties they were wet and I steed to sniff them then I licked the wet spot and then I rubbed it vigorously all around penis then I licked it again and about 7 days ago I noticed a red area under my foreskin and it has very tiny red dots on it and there is one red dot that is bigger than the others hit us farther away from the red spot. I am really scared do I have herpes? Can an expert please answer my question

Is it possible to contract herpes this way... Yes it is possible but not very probable... There are lots of variables are coming to play... How long the virus lives outside the body, how much is a virus would be on the panties, etc...  The best course of action would be to have the bumps swabbed by a doctor for hsv... Outside of that you can have a hsv IgG test at four months to tell you your status...

Virus can only live outside the "host" so little, I doubt it but it is best if you get a test done. In my opinion it is more frightening to live with it and not knowing about it than knowing and being prepared. That being said, it is your decision.

There aren't any physicians who post here.  Professional opinions are best obtained by visiting a doctor who can give you a full examination.

I understand but I can only give you the odds which are very very small that you could acquire hsv this way. I can't  give you a definitive answer to what the bumps are.

The odds this gave you hsv is so very small. That being said it can't hurt to have them examined by your Dr. That will put your mind at ease.
