Oral herpes

Hello

I had an exposure with a csw about 4 weeks ago. I had protected insertive oral, I fingered her and used saliva as lub, I can't remember if I put those fingers in my mouth after fingering, and I licked her clitoris for a few seconds maybe 10-15 seconds. The same day maybe 5 hours later, I felt tingling near the corner of my lips. I checked in the mirror and there was a very small redish area with a papercut in the middle. The tingling continued for 4-5 days. There were no blisters present, only redish. My wife got a herpes single blister on her lip 6 days after my exposure. At that time I had no blisters. For the next week, that redish spot got bigger and I used zovirax cream to treat it. Zovirax burned the skin in that area and appeared some dead skin instead. After removing the dead skin with mi nail, that area become again very redish and a few hours later had blisters all over. Went to the doctor and I was told it was herpes. I took acyclovir and the herpes healed after a week.
I had cold sores before in the same spot, but I am affraid I've contaced hsv 2 from performing few seconds of cunilingus and then passed it to my wife.

1. If someone has oral hsv 1 and then gets oral hsv 2, would the hsv 2 outbreak in the same spot as hsv 1?
2. It took almost 2 weeks for the blisters to appear since I felt the tingling and from what I've read about herpes it is unusual. What do you think?
3. I've read that prodrome(tingling) is something that comes before a recurent outbreak. Is it possible to fell the tingling when the virus enters the body and starts to replicate?

Thank you!
