is herpes in throat possible?
I have a ?. I am 17 female with genital herpes. Recently i have had a sore throat for the last week, and it is not strep. I can see there are bumps in the back and it has been painful, is there a chance that this could be oral herpes??
The initial oral herpes infection can cause symptoms there. Recurrences aren't there though.

If you have had herpes for more than just a couple of weeks then this isn't likely to be related to your genital herpes. Many things can cause sore throats - you need to continue following up on this with your provider to get answers.
