HSV 1 vs HSV2: your findings indicate exposure to HSV1 virus and development of antibodies against, it is the one reponsible for the facial and oral infection occuring in chilhood, or less commonly in adults, at times referred to as 'cold sores'. HSV2 is mainly sexually transmitted, which isn't the case with you
