I have herpes simplex 1. how likely is it that i will to infect a partner?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Can be very: Easy to do if you are not careful when you have these lesions. Avoid contact during this time. Also be careful with yourself -- you can easily infect your eyes. Once you have it you have it for life. This is something you must be responsible not to share. Good luck and be careful.
