A member asked:
I shared someones razor after they used it a few minutes later and after i used they confirmed they had hsv2 (genital herpes). 2 weeks later i noticed hsv2 like sores and bumps on my penis. i have never had sex. is this a possible?

Yes, you likely got the HSV-2 from the razor. HSV-2 can survive for several hours on a dry surface and can last a day on a wet or damp surface. You should never share razor with someone else. Take care.
