thanks for the info. im negative for HSV 1 and 2. all my life tested and always negative. never a sore (oral or genital) or anything. parents never had it, never had chicken pox... i was lucky... im VERY careful, lasted 32 years without any issues until this stupid situation.
i feel really stupid and ashamed now.. time will tell i guess
Hi, the risk that herpes was transferred through the saliva with an active lip sore is close to zero risk. The likely hood that the virus suvived the trip from mouth to hand to penis is nearly an impossibility. Since upward of 65% of the adult population would test positive for oral hsv1, you might want to get tested as those that have it in one area area basicly immune to contracting it in another. So if you do have oral hsv1 from childhood, you could consider this zero risk.
