Did you or do you ever have cold sores ? HSV1/2 are also seen as the cause of this problem. A positive IGG just says you had the germ in the past, it does not locate where or how it was acquired.

About 60% of adults have been infected with HSV 1 and carry the virus with them. Other occasional cold sore, most do not have symptoms from the infection. You may acquired the infection and been asymptomatic. There is no need to dwell on this. Get HPV vaccine.
