A member asked:

My friend has a cold sore on her lip and she touched the end of my razor, can i get herpes from this if i use it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unlikely: The herpes virus is spread by skin to skin contact. The virus can only survive outside the body (ie. on a razor blade) for seconds. Your chances are extremely low.
