Protected oral sex/ herpes though saliva?
Hi, about a month ago I received PROTECTED oral sex from a woman. No skin touched but I've read that you can still get herpes from saliva. About 2 days after I felt my skin on my thighs, around my penis, and pubic area, and around my Anus, but there were no visible rashes of any kind visible. Doesn't burn while urinating but I did feel a little tingle/burning sensation after urinating. I did feel a tingle/burning sensation after ejaculation a week ago. She did have dried "hair dye" on her hand at the time, and she did touch my penis with her hands. When I got home I did see the purple hair dye on my underwear maybe because it rubbed off. I also feel tingling under between my testicles and anus. I can feel it most when I'm sitting down. At one point I felt pain deep inside the same area when I was sitting or laying. So my biggest concern is, is this a sign of herpes?? Again her lips did not touch my skin.. I've been freaking out for a month. It's been 6 weeks. Should I get tested now?
Her lips would have had to contact and massage that are. Like I said saliva touching this area is a non issue.
Thanks for you comment. Another question for you. If it was oral with a condom. Is there a way I could get the herpes infection in pubic area and not on my penis? It would it be on my penis? I saw a red bump in my pubic area. Wasn't painful.
Your protected oral exposure was safe. Zero risk for all std's including herpes. You would not have contracted hsv from a little saliva touching any area around your genitals.
Hope this helps

If you haven't had a lesion, you're good. Herpes acts very quickly - within a few days of exposure. You would have fever, blisters, etc. etc. If you truly need a peace of mind, get tested.
I will say this though, the doctor will ask you the same thing, "Have you had a breakout, any lesions?" If you say no, they will probably tell you that you are wasting your time.
