pus on tonsils

I received oral sex 3 days ago. This morning I was told by the person who performed it on me that they have a sore throat and pus on their tonsils. we did not use protection and I did *** in their mouth which they then spat out. I do have Herpes simplex 1 but was not and still am not having an outbreak, which in the case of simplex one makes transmission unlikely. I have lived with Herpes for over twenty years now and to my knowledge have never transmitted it as I have always been careful. I also have had no unusual discharges, sores, lesions etc..also I received oral from another person the next day and they seem to be fine! Does it sound like I might have given them something or could it be something else entirely? is three days enough time for Herpes to present? could it be another STD?

One more thing, an initial outbreak can show anywhere from 2 to 12 days after infection.  If it shows at all.

I wanted to add in case you don't post in the herpes forum....There is possibility of viral shedding with hsv1.  It is a lower occurrence than type 2 but still, there is a small chance.  Even if you have had it for so long.  So, do not think you have zero chance of spreading to others.  Also, there are some people who do not show any visible sign of having hsv1 or 2.  If they never test because they don't think they have a reason to, they would not know and have nothing to tell.

Any herpes questions should be asked in the herpes forum,

As for any other STDs, If you have had other unprotected encounters then it is possible you have an STD and May have transmitted to her, But the only STDs should would be at risk for would be Gono, HSV, Syphilis.

If you have had other sexual partners and even with this one you should get a FUll std panel to learn your status, she should also see her health care provider for a proper diagnosis and she should consider getting an STD test as well..

Here is a link for Testing info...
