question

i have recently contracted HVS2, its been 3 weeks since i have been infected, its been 2 weeks since i have had mt 1st outbreak, i a have been doing a lot of reading about this thing. But my problem is, i touched the area of infection which currently no bumps or mucus are present and after i accidentally touch my stomach, after i realized, i applied a little water and soap to the same fingers i touched the area with and rubbed the area on my stomach which i had previously touch, then used a rag to rub and wipe the water away. I am wondering if i could have autoinoculate myself by doing that and if so, how long will it take for new bumps to appear and will i feel the symptoms on the area?

your hsv2 igg is a low positive. because you tested too early, at this point repeat your igg testing 3 months post encounter and go from there.  

usually you only shed hsv1 from the nose when you have active lesions there.

you didn't list your actual results - you listed the result ranges.
