can i aquire genital herpes if i give oral sex to a woman?
i had unprotected oral sex and protected insertion to a sex worker. after 3months i had an ulcers all over inside my mouth mainly on top and under my tongue it was really painful. the doctor told me it was herpes and gave me accyclovir and it help healed my ulcers. 6months after i had another episode this time only on and under my tongue and milder that the primary outbreak.
is there any possibility that someday i will have outbreak on my genital? because i acquired the decease while giving oral sex.
is kissing can also spread the decease? i forgot to mention we also kiss torrid with tongue..

i forgot to mention, more or less a week after encounter, i had this nasty sore throat. my tonsils almost covered with white like a strep throat. i also have a fever during that time. is it possible that it was my primary outbreak?
i went to the ENT doctor and gave me cilyndamycin to take 4x day for a week. and it heals my throat.

Herpes spreads by oral, vaginal and anal sex.
Herpes sores blister, then burst, scab and heal.
STIs are the most common cause of genital sores.
Millions of people are diagnosed with STDs in the U.S. each year.
STDs can't be transmitted by casual contact, like hugging or touching.
Syphilis is an STD that is transmitted by oral, genital and anal sex.
If this is herpes, then it is more likely that you have had an oral HSV1 infection for quite some time. An initial outbreak would occur 2-10 days after infection. What you are having (barring any sexual activity of concern in the 2-10 days leading into the issues with your mouth) would therefore need to be a recurrence. The implication being that you cannot know when you were infected.
In most instances, infection of oral and genital is independent and the virus remains limited to the one location. This does not prevent you from obtaining the other type in the other location. Hence with an oral infection there is no indication that you have genital herpes or are in any way infectious below the belt.
I would suggest that testing is a good idea here. As it is three months, you can get a full STD panel and be confident in the results. Explicitly ask for IgG antibodies type specific for HSV1 and HSV2.
From there you can assess your risks to future partners.
