Herpes from using someone's tootbrush?
Is it possible for herpes to transmit if you accidentally use someone else's toothbrush?
No. Herpes is transmitted by direct skin-to-skin rubbing with a person who has herpes. You can't get it by sharing utensils, toothbrushes, towels, etc. If a person has oral herpes, you would need to have lip-to-lip rubbing contact with them.
