Can you get herpes from fingering a girl?

I fingered a girl about 4 days ago..i washed my hands before i touched my penis again...yesterdayi noticed a scab on my penis...so i ripped it off cuz i freakedout and it revealed a small cut..today it scabbed over and it looks like its almost healed..no pain, no tinging, no burning...i also masterbated the night before so maybe i cut myself without noticing? what percent chance do i have of getting genital herpes this way? i mean i even washed my hands..i thought the chance was extremely low even if you didn't wash your hands because herpes can only live for seconds on your finger

My advice wouldn't have been any different even if you had said you didn't wash your hands.

Also, pretend I didn't wash my hands. How long could have the virus lived on my fingers. Because I mean i was drunk....I can usually tell whats going on and control myself while drunk though and I remember pretty much everything. I know I washed my hands because they were nasty lol. But I fingered her more than one time. I know for a fact I didn't touch my genitals right after doing it but what if it was like 5 minutes later and I did. Is there any possibility I could transfer the virus this way? I don't even know if she has herpes or not..it is just one of my first times doing this so im paranoid.

Be kinder to the lil guy - use a good lube when masturbating :)

No she did not do anything to me. I took one for the team lol. I had my pants on the whole time. But no I didn't use lube while masterbating, but like I said this isn't the first time I haven't so I just found it weird. I also have fordoyce spots so maybe I accidently scraped one of those off cuz the scab was more to the back where those are?

In our read before posting post on this forum, we explain why just keeping all your questions in 1 post helps us help you best. thank you for your future cooperation with this. I removed your other post since they were basically the same.

This isn't likely to be herpes from masturbating someone recently. if you've ever had sex before , or received oral sex, then see your provider to rule out herpes. I'm assuming that when you were stimulating this gal the other day, she probably was doing the same to you? and did you use lube when you masturbated the night before?
