Could toilet seats a hot zone to contract herpes type 2?
I have a cousin who has Hepes type 2. I have used her toilet on numerous occasions not thinking anything of it and then appears a blister in my vaginal area. I have only had sex with one person and he went to get checked out by three doctors who told him he was okay and he swears up and down that he has never had sex with anyone else.Could she had possibly shed her skin cells on the toilet when using it and then I picked them up on my skin by sitting on her toilet after she used it?
If you have a question then start your own thread. If it deals with herpes then post in the herpes community.
I had an outbreak on my lower left butt cheek a couple months ago. Was concerned, lasted a week or so. Itchy & red, got welted & big, oozed a bit and now this weekend my son has one like it on his right butt cheek. I am freaking out. Could I have herpes 2 & now he have it? I am about to have a heart attack or breakdown. I cry so much. I know I want to get tested today for everything. What's going to happen if he has it too? How can I possibly spread this to him. I love this little guy more than anyone! It would devastate me to think he has this from me. We share a bathroom, shower & toilet, and sink. I'm taking him this morning to the dr's to get it checked out. He's had it going on 5 days now. Trying to put cream or powder on it to stop the itching for him & tell him not to scratch at all costs. HELP!!

I appreciate u answering the ques. but did you really have to say no all them times? I think i get ya point.
So your bf went to get himself checked ( did he get blood tests or just visual exams ) but you don't mention that you went to be seen. Did you go get examined? Did you have any testing done?
If this is herpes - it's far more likely that it came from having sex - either oral or genital than it is you got it off a toilet seat. It takes more than just coming in contact with the virus to transmit it - it takes heat and friction to get it into the body. The skin on your buttocks and thighs ( which are the areas which would come in contact with the actual toilet seat ) are too thick for the virus to easily penetrate so you'd really have to be doing some grinding and sweating on the toilet seat to get infected that way. no matter how constipated we are - I don't think we are going to those extreme's on the toilet seat so it's just not going to happen.
