Contact: the virus transfers through skin contact other than kissing ,like hand contacts that was in touch of the lesion while its active,transfers to others healthy hands . Your under medications for that or others?

HSV-1 transmission: by sharing eating and drinking utensils, razors, towels, washcloths, oral sex as well as kissing, may spread HSV-1. The virus may be transmitted by even though blisters and sores are not present. Hope it helps.

A member asked:
Hi, I recently received oral sex about 3 days ago and i noticed a little bump on the labia. No itch or burn. I do use a razor so can it be a cut from that or more serious? Also, i kissed the person so if it was herpes wouldnt it be on my mouth too?
