Hi,
I usually get oral HSV1 outbreak quite often and they are noticeable and last 10 days. On Monday I thought I was getting one so I took Valacyclovir. The blister started under the skin on my lip and stayed very small and turned into a very small blister. Not normal for me but I guess the tablets suppressed it.
My concern is that on Wednesday evening I went to kiss my 5 year old daughter good night on the forehead so as to not risk transmission but she moved and I kissed her eye. My lips touched her briefly (1 second at most). She told me my lip touched her about on inch below the eye but I cannot be certain. It felt like it touched her eye.
What is the risk of transmission to my daughter eye in this scenario?
If transmission did occur will she likely get symptoms and will these be within 10 days. Can I relax if after 10 days there are no symptoms?
Thank you for your time.
