A member asked:

Woman with herpes & two open sores on lips. i had sex protected. then as i went to leave she kissed me on cheek. high or low chance i got it now?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Herpes ?'s: Oral or vaginal herpes is easily transmitted, but usually requires contact with mucosal surfaces (male urethra or lips/mouth), so just a skin contact may not transmit herpes I or II. Most individuals have contact at some point with herpes, and its development into open sores depends on stress, either nutritional, emotional or job/school related. Get a serum test from your MD if sores occur.
