Genital Herpes from Oral? Help!!!

Posted , 3 users are following.

I was drunk out of my mind and passed out. I'm almost absolutely sure he gave me oral while I was sleep. he also had a cold sore. A few days later I became really sick. Flu-like symptoms and it hurt to pee. I just noticed these lesions and what feels like a possible perineal tear? (do not have photos of the possible tear, but it hurts like hell). The lesions did not have any pus or blood, they've looked exactly like this, but it's very sensitive to touch. I also thought that maybe its because I shaved horribly at the time and the lesions came back irritated.. Going to get this checked when its possible, but would like to hear more opinionsimageimageimage

    Very likely he passed you GHSV-1. While it used to be a rare occurence, it has really taken off in the past few years, fueled mostly from receiving oral sex from a partner with oral HSV-1. I've got it. While the initial diagnosis over four years ago was devastating, I've learned to live life without giving it much thought. If it is, in fact, GHSV-1, OB's tend to be rare. I've had maybe two in the past four years -- I say maybe because I'm not convinced they were OB's since they both came shortly after shaving.
