Question 1

can tiny paper cut like thing on the side of the lips be herpes?

Accepted Answer

Sores on Lips: No. It is usually a sign of a fungal infection. These are often caused by severe stress.

Question 2

how can i show girlfriend the cut on my lip is not herpes?

Accepted Answer

Culture: First of all, herpes is usually a cluster of small painful blisters, not a cut. But the only way to be really sure is to see a doctor and get a viral culture. A negative result doesn't guarantee you don't have it, but it's pretty convincing evidence.

Question 3

can you get hiv or any other std from a handjob if lets say you get semen in your hand and have a cut?what risks does a handjob carry if they give it to you or you give it? lastly can i get herpes if someone touch my penuswith their lips forasecond?

Accepted Answer

: All these diseases are transmitted from bodily fluids, sperm, saliva and blood. If any open cuts or wounds present than any contact by an infected person will cause transmission. Practice safe sex for safe results.

Question 4

i noticed small cuts on my clitoris and front of vaginal lips. no bumps. 1 sexual partner and always protected sex. cuts went away in a week. herpes?

Accepted Answer

Cuts on genital area: Interesting question -  Herpes if anything will cause tiny blisters and itching/pain  but generally NOT something that looks like cuts.   -  unlikely they are from shaving (if you shave - unlikely you are shaving your clitoris).    From clothing??   but to answer your question - unlikely that its from Herpes especially if you have protected sex with 1 partner.    Hope that helps

Question 5

how can you tell if you have a cut in your mouth or herpes?

Accepted Answer

Culture.: It is very rare to see herpes inside the mouth, despite what you've been told, or read on-line. The overwhelming majority of sores inside the mouth are canker sores, not herpes. The only way to know for sure, however, is to see your doctor for a viral culture.

Question 6

i shared a vape with someone who had a cut at the corner of their mouth but it didnt look like herpes but he smoked it on the other side instead of that and i made sure i still wiped it off multiple times will i contract it if it is?

Accepted Answer

: Sores at the corner of the mouth usually are due to angular cheilitis, not herpes. But even if herpes, vigorous and repeated wiping would markedly reduce the risk, probably nearly to zero. (The much higher risk in shared vaping equipment is for colds, flu, and COVID.)

Question 7

can you get oral herpes from someone who u don't kiss but she gives u head but doesn't have any open sores or cold sores and i had no cuts on my d?

Accepted Answer

Possible but unlikel: Hi Roy. It's possible for someone to shed the herpes virus and be asymptomatic. People with oral herpes may secrete the virus 2% to 9% of the time when they are not having sores. That being said, if they are asymptomatic and secreting the virus, the amount of virus being shed is much less. You can be tested for infection.  I would recommend knowing your sex partner And both of you testing  for STD

Question 8

can you get herpes 2 from sharing a cigarette while having a cut on your tongue with someone who has herpes 2 in mouth and genital areas?

Accepted Answer

Yes: If the person whose cigarette you are sharing has active lesions then you definitely are at risk. Even if this person doesn't have active lesions he/she might be shedding virus and can be contagious. It is best to not share cigs, or maybe consider quitting.

Question 9

can u get herpes frm sharing a cigarette while u have a cut on ur tongue w/ someone who has herpes2 in mouth, genital but don't have any sores rite now?

Accepted Answer

Herpes: Asymptomatic shedding is when a person's body produces virus without them showing any signs of disease. In other words, it is when a person is contagious even though they have no signs or symptoms of infection.

Question 10

have hsv 1.  past week saw cut outside vagina and now i have a pimple on groin like white head.  is this a new herpes infection.  i am married????....

Accepted Answer

Herpes simplex: It does not sound as if you have a herpetic eruption on your genitalia, but does sound as if you should be seen by a doctor and have this diagnosed and treated appropriately. Best wishes.
