If its pus then it isn't a herpes lesion. Herpes lesions contain a clear fluid that will often weep.
I popped out again the yellow fuss, there some hard fuss and blood came out from the pimple, this is pimple or cold sore, what is the difference between cold sore and pimple? I
My last question, if my son touch my pimple/cold sore and he dont have any broken skin, the virus can transmit in this way? Or my pimple/coldsore accidentally touch the skin of my baby
In your expert opinion, this is outbreak or a pimple? The puss just pop out and blood came out, now the puss still oozing there is no pain also,
You can in theory get a cold sore anywhere on your face. The most common areas are lips and just inside your nose close to your face. However, chin and cheek are also possible sites of outbreaks just rarer.
I think it best to keep all lesions away from your baby and covered if this is possible.

So only in the lips need to be worry, so this thing with my face is not a herpes, i read in the internet that there a possibilities herpes will be on face also, i need your opinion in this matter, please help me now, now i covered my pimple with band aid atleast untill it become dry, i am not sure this is pimple or a cold sore? Last question to you Mr fleetwood, Coldsore only arise in lips or mouth? Not in the face? Thank you
A pimple with pus will not be a herpes outbreak.
If you have an outbreak on you lips, then it is best to avoid contact of your lips to your baby. All other cuddles and tickles are fine.
As you probably realize, people shed the virus and can infect that way. The odds are that your baby boy will become infected in his lifetime. This may be from you, the father, grandparents, aunts and uncles, the little girls at school... the list goes on.
Take all reasonable precautions when you have an outbreak but otherwise don't miss out on affection. That would do more damage than HSV1 is ever likely to.
