I tested positive for hsv1/2 igg - how worried should i be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The test shows you have had past infection by the germs known to cause cold sores and or genital herpes. Both are inconvenient but treatable issues if they recur, as they do in some people. If you don't get recurrent outbreaks, I see no problem. If you do there are treatments to reduce/avoid problems with them.
