I would like to thank all of the people that responded to my question earlier. I have been doing a ton of reading on the topic of herpes. I would like to get some more opinions and facts on this matter. last night i engaged in sexual activity with a girl who said she had a one time outbreak of sores on her vagina. she said that she had gotten it from her boyfriend many years ago from his cold sore via oral sex. I did not see her vagina. she gave me oral sex. she masturbated and then transferred her vaginal fluid to my penis... she also licked her fingers after touching herself and i did as well. I bit my cheek last night (broke the skin). My major concern is when she got her fingers wet with her vaginal fluid and then masturbated me. We did not have intercourse. I am extremely worried and would love some information. Thank you.. I had too much wine last night. I feel like an idiot.

Hello.

It sounds like you're looking for someone to tell you everything is fine; however, no one can tell you whether you've been infected simply by a description of your activities; for that, you need a direct physical examination.

My advice to you is to thoroughly read the STD/Herpes information site and familiarize yourself with information about transmission. If you want to reduce your risk of any infection, use latex barriers (condoms, gloves, etc.) and Nonoxynol-9.
