It depends on how bad the infection is. Also, how do you sleep at night knowing your grammar is so horrid?

Is it possible to get a genital herpes to somebody not through sex but by just using someones panty?
The chance is very small. Once herpes hits air the virus will die almost instantly. Herpes isn't likely to rub on the surface of a towel, toilet, clothing or other items. If the herpes virus happened to rub on the surface of an item the virus would die before a person came in contact with the virus. Some studies report herpes could spread by sharing a drink but the chance is almost non existent. You can get genital herpes through genital-genital contact or genital-oral contact with someone who has herpes infection. The virus is most easily spread through contact with open sores. But you also can get the virus from skin that does not appear to have a sore. You can become infected with the herpes virus without having intercourse.
Can you get HIV from herpes 2?
It's possible. People with herpes can be more suceptable to getting HIV because it can pass more easily through open sores or blisters. So some one with herpes should abstain from having sex while they have any signs of a break out. But just so you know because some one has genital herpes that doesn't always mean they have HIV too.
How can you get herpes herpes?
There are various kinds of herpes you can get but the most common ones are hsv-1 oral herpes and hsv-2 genital herpes. This virus is transferred by skin to skin touching. Which means that if you have sex with someone who has genital herpes there is a high chance that the condom won't protect you from the virus. Since the condom does not cover the pubic area where more then likely where the virus will be at. The same goes for hsv 1, if you kiss someone who has it then you might just get it.
How do you know if you have HSv-1?
Herpes simplex virus 1 is the virus that causes fever blisters and cold sores.Herpes simplex virus ll is the virus that is responsible for genital herpes.There are anti viral medications that you can take to help reduce outbreaks of herpes,(Valtrex) but it is still possible to spread it even when no signs are present.It IS possible to spread HSv-1 by oral sex. If you have a fever blister and preform oral sex on someone, you can give them genital herpes. Just as someone with genital herpes can spread it to you by oral, vaginal or anal sex . Please use protection if you have genital herpes. marlin

What is a bump with pus between your leg and pelvis called?
Genital herpes, or just a pimple. Depending on what it looks like. Does it look like a pimple ? It could still be genital herpes. Not that I can be onehundred percent sure cuz I dont have any medical experience with said matters at hand.
Can homeopathy cure herpes?
Homeopathy has a specific theory of sexually transmitted diseases, and refers to genital herpes by the name 'figwarts', because they are shaped like figs. Most homeopaths will claim to have experience curing genital herpes, and many people have found STD conditions cured by homeopathy. One of the main homeopathic medicines for genital herpes is Thuja, available in any natural foods store. Claims notwithstanding, there is no hard scientific evidence that homeopathy has ever cured ANYTHING, let along genital herpes which has no known cure. (I'm not saying that homeopathy is, necessarily, worthless, just that there's no proof that it isn't.)
If you have hurpes can you still get pregnant?
Absolutely YES! Genital herpes may be passed from one person to another through close physical contact. This means sex and practically anything else that can lead to sex. This includes kissing, oral sex, anal sex, etcetera. Genital herpes does not keep you from getting pregnant. In fact, if you or your partner have genital herpes you should see a doctor immediately. The doctor can show you how to use safer birth control so you don't pass the herpes virus to each other (or anyone else) and do his/her best to make sure you don't get pregnant. Babies born to mothers with Herpes generally contract herpes when they are born from the vagina. Many times, women with genital herpes are forced to have a caesarean delivery (when they cut her tummy open and get the baby out) just to protect the baby from getting Herpes. This is VERY SERIOUS! See a doctor and learn what to do to protect yourself and your partner and NOT get pregnant until you learn more.

What could a large bump around the genital area be it pops like a pimple with witish stuff and blood comes out?
It could probably be Herpes or just razor bump.
If you have herpes and your partner does too but you are not breakin out can you kiss?
I haven't heard or read anywhere that HSV I, cold sores on the mouth, can be transmitted even when there are no cold sores present, but HSV II, genital herpes, CAN still be spread even when no sores are present on the genitals. That seems a little confusing. It is called "shedding." I would ask the family doctor. And just a reminder to others: you cannot catch genital herpes just by kissing someone who is having an outbreak. Cold sores on the mouth (HSV I) are not quite the same as sores on the genitals (HSVII) There is now more investigation into whether or not oral herpes can be spread to the genitals, also that genital herpes can be transmitted orally. The Center for Disease Control (CDC) is doing further research into it, but it does now seems possible that the two strains of the virus may have the potential for cross-contamination. I haven't found any information as to what this means and if the two viruses can transmutate into the other.
Can you get herpes from your own cold sores?
The herpes virus is spread by skin-to-skin contact with an infected person, at the location where the virus is active, during a time when they are shedding virus.If a person shedding cold sore virus at the mouth performs oral sex on you, you can get genital herpes.You can not get genital herpes from your own cold sores, unless you are very flexible.Many people are under the mistaken impression that the type of herpes that causes cold sores is different from the type that causes genital herpes. This is a myth; herpes types 1 and 2 each can cause oral or genital lesions.One third of the population is unaware that they have the virus, that's why it's being spread so easily. One out of 5 people has the virus, and that number is growing. There is no cure. There are antivirals that are prescribed that keep the number of outbreaks down, but like I said, just because you don't have a sore, doesn't mean you can't get it. Acyclovir and Valacyclovir are the two most prescribed anti-virals.
