Possible oral HSV2??

[Sirrob1234]

I already have oral HSV1 from my childhood. Saturday night I hung out w/ a new "interest" of mine and ended up making out. Later that night he exposed to me that he has genital HSV2 in the form of internal herpes. Anyways, two days later I got what sort of looked like a blister/red mark on the inside of my upper lip. I also got what is referred to as "prodrome" symptoms in that area but only on the outside portion of my lip and the skin area above my lip. The sore or mark doesn't hurt that bad, just minimally. The guy said that he has never had oral herpes and that it has been a very long time since he has an anal herpes outbreak. Maybe it's just my emotions and guilt getting to me, but does if seem likely that I became infected w/ HSV2 orally? I know it's rare and the odds say that he didn't have HSV2 both orally and genetically, but I thought I would get others opinions. The prodromal symptoms I explain are also off and on, not constant. I am a gay male if that matters any, thank you!

Oral HSV2 is very rare, almost no chance this partner has this.

Even if for some reason he did, its infectiousness is extremely low.

Little doubt HSV1 is causing your cold sore and you haven't been infected with HSV2.

Might I also add I sometimes bits my lips when I'm nervous, so that may be the cause

So this isn't HSV2 going on? Anyone else have any input?

Hi, prodrome is for those who already have herpes. Not for a new infection. If you had an outbreak its most likely triggered from your old infection.
