A member asked:
I recently used my thumb to rub a girls clitoris for a minute or two. i noticed a sore on her pubic area with a red head. can i get herpes on my thumb and transfer it to my genitals?? now my thumb is sore.. all in my head???

There is little or no risk of herpes from such an exposure; almost something else is the cause of your thumb symptoms. And whenever someone suspects his or her own symptoms have a psychological origin ("all in my head"), usually s/he is right.
