I am in a relationship with a woman who is positive for 1 and 2. I test myself regularly and have always been negative for the last 2 years.
Last night after kissing her I developed a painful sore on upper lip almost right away. I went to sleep and it got worse the next day. Applying hydrogen peroxide causes a lot of pain. Went to urgent care doc m hour ago who looked at it. He saw the swelling but no ulcer and no blister. He did it could be a cold sore (which I never had) but with the absence of ulcer he thinks it is more of an allergic reaction of some kind.
What do you think? Because this happened right after kissing her I think could I have contracted Herpes? It is quite painful. Does it happen this fast?
