Hello. I have had herpes type 1 for as long as I can remember getting a cold sore every so often. Recently, I drank some soda that was in a can that my sister with herpes type 2 had been drinking from. I did not realize that she had blisters all over her mouth and I poured the soda from the can into a clean glass and drank it. Within 2-3 days, I had four big and painful blisters on my lower lip and little tiny white bumps forming on my top lip. I went to my family doc and he perscribed Valtrex so I took two dosages within 12 hour period. The tiny bumps did not form into a big blister and they never hurt but I still have them two weeks later. The larger painful ones cleared up within a few days.
Is it possible to have contracted herpes type 2 from drinking this soda?
Would a newly exposed herpes 2 virus show blisters or symptoms within 3 days?
What should I do for the little white bumps on my top lip that don't seem to change? No smaller, no bigger- just there.
SHould I go back to my family doc or would a dermatologist be better?
Is there a test to determine if herpes type 2 caused the outbreak on my lips?
Thank you so much for your help.
