Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Herpes / July 2004Problem with sores, help!
Currently have fever blisters on mouth. I am not sexually active. Touched penis 2 days ago, now have small lump on top of penis. It ithches alot, im not sure if this is herpes..or? Considering fever blisters are a type of herpes...im not sure. And im scared. It does not burn or anything. Just itches and is annoying. Is this herpes? or am i fine and should stop worrying? Fever blisters are Herpes simplex type 1. You can also have type 1 genitally. Genital herpes can also be herpes simplex type 2. How long have you had fever blisters? Is this the first time you've ever had an outbreak? If you are newly infected, then you could have possibly transferred herpes to your genitals. However, this is not as easy as it sounds. If you've had fever blisters before, then I doubt you transferred it to your genitals now. But if you are sick or have immune system problems, then this could have happened. The only way to find out what you've got going on down below is to get to a doctor immediately and have it cultured. ar > Currently have fever blisters on mouth. > I am not sexually active.

Also, you could have been infected at the same time if you engaged in oral sex with the person who gave you the fever blisters. ar > yes, this is my first time with a fever blister. > [quoted text clipped - 28 lines] > herpes? > > > or am i fine and should stop worrying? > Currently have fever blisters on mouth. > I am not sexually active.

Second, go get tested, you do have something, and it needs to be cleared up. As to "treatment", do some research about different cures, and make your own decision as to which one to use. Well, im not sexually active. and i still have the fever blisters currently. i just noticed the lump recently though. > > Currently have fever blisters on mouth. > > I am not sexually active.

The reason is that you get the virus from a person. So, you either recently came in contact through kissing or you've had herpes a really long time and you are just now having your first outbreak. Kissing can be a peck on the cheek, by the way. If you have not had any personal contact with anyone for a long time, then you've had herpes for awhile and it would be difficult for you to reinfect yourself in a new location. ar > nobody,.... > > Who've you been kissing?

I know anything's possible, but isn't this quite a bit more unlikely than a peck on the lips? Seems to me the cheek entry method would probably have to involve a break in the skin or abrasion. Something like a zit or razor burn/cut etc., I haven't seen much about oral transmission though, and I often wonder anyhoo, about how they study/learn transmission methods (genital included). Seems some speculation and theory would have to be involved ... but I dunno. M2 Good point. ar > >Kissing can be a peck on the > >cheek, by the way.

It could be a trigger for one though, but it doesn't mean you will definitely get one. The best thing to do is go see a doc. Wanda  SignatureLooking for other swingers?
