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?

testing for herpes the day after sex was far too soon.

but the test still came out positive and i felt all the symptoms and did get a breakout, so i guess my body just produce the antibodies fast, i have hsv1 for years now, dont know if that have anything to do with it. I have accepted it but i want to know more about autoinaculation, im not getting much info on the net

ok, i dont know what to think now, i have hsv1 for years now and i have recently contracted hsv2, my thing is that i think i have past hsv2 to my eye, but im wondering if its the hsv1 occurring again but breaking out in my eye, how can i tell the difference of hsv1 and 2 in the eye

The thing about HSV that people don't understand is that you can't spread your own thing to other parts of your body. That is what i was told by the Docs. Any professional here feel free to correct me on this.

Autoinoculation is extremely rare, and when it happens, it happens during a primary outbreak, but even then it's extremely rare. After your primary outbreak you aren't at a real risk of getting HSV-1 or HSV-2 (if you really have both) at another part of your body. So, since you say you have HSV-2 genitally then you won't get it orally, and since you have HSV-1 orally, you won't get it genitally. If you're still in your primary outbreak then just continue to wash your hands after you use the bathroom or touch yourself there.

Your HSV-1 is not breaking out on the eye. HSV-1 outbreaks occur in the nose region to the chin. There's no real reason to think you have HSV-1 in your eye or ocular herpes.

Also, your body wouldn't produce antibodies a day after sex that would be detectable for a positive result. Some people can produce antibodies within a week while almost all will get a definitive result three months post exposure. You really need to get your test results and post them here so Grace can interpret the numbers.

no you didn't make antibodies really fast that you were + a day after sex.   either you had hsv2 prior to this and never knew it or you had a false positive.
