Whatre the chances are of me giving my boyfriend genital herpes HSV 1 from saliva, and my lips not touching his genitals. My cold sore was almost gone?
Does touching a cold sore on the lip then touching genitals have a high chance of transferring HSV to the genitals? GF has cold sore, we are avoiding oral sex and kissing for now but wonder if touching genitals and normal sex is still okay?
Conflicting info online on HSV-1 - some say its only transferred through direct mouth to genital contact, others say touching cold sore on another person's lip then touching your own genitals also transfers it. Is it both or is it direct contact only?
When I take a shower, I touched an cold sore with scab cover caused by HSV in lower leg (which is also strange for me. I dont know how I caught it in the lower legs), and then use the hand to clean my penis and glans. Will I got genital herpes?
