It means that you may have had some skin to skin contact with some one that has herpes (ie kissing some one with a cold sore which is oral herpes or having intercourse with some one that has genital herpes) but you didn't contract it.
You're not always doomed to get herpes if you happen to have sex with some one that has it, or if you kiss some one while they have a cold sore. But there is a higher risk of contracting it if you were exposed to herpes while some one was having any symptoms or a break out.
No, swallowing the sperm will not cause herpes. If your partner has herpes, you have already been exposed by the time you reach this stage.
It can be an infection in your ears, Herpes, or a cold or anything i dont know
Called herpes
He also has the plague.
and i've been with my boyfriend for almost 3 years. I've gotten told this before I even met him, but he just got a thorough check and doesnt have it and hasnt even been exposed..does this just mean I have had sex with somebody that has herpes or does this mean I definitely have it
A person has to be infected with the herpes virus (type 1) to get a cold sore.
You can't get herpes by sharing soap.You will not catch herpes from a bar of soap.No, the herpes virus quickly dies outside the body.No because herpes, unlike most common STD's, is a virus, meaning it can not survive like a bacteria when exposed to the open
what do you mean if exposed? But you check for headlice so you dont have them and you dont give them to anyone else.If you have someone checking you for lice, cause you cant do it on your own,and they find white and it is hard to move, it is hatched lice eggs or 'nits'.If they are brown/grey,they are not hatched.
Herpes
Anyone who is exposed to the herpes simplex virus, which is extremely common. Most children have been exposed (mainly through being kissed by loving relatives) by the time they are two years old.
Yes. Cold sores are caused by the herpes virus, which once contracted remains dormant in your system for life; you do not have to be re-exposed to the virus for it to enter an active phase again.
A low positive herpes titer is evidence of past exposure to the virus. It can't tell you whether you have oral herpes, as most adults do, or genital herpes, or some other form.
