I've been getting some type of pimples on my chest, they are not filled with pus. I remember that the person who transmitted me herpes type 2 had ejaculated on me once and the sperm went to my chest. Is it possible that herpes is there? Even if it's type two. I heard it could happen.

    That would be most unusual and unlikely. How were you diagnosed with Type 2 and when?

      Even so, your chest pimples are highly unlikely to be related. Type 2 strongly prefers the genitals and rarely even infects the mouth, despite it being moist and mucosal, so regular, unbroken skin like on the chest would be even less susceptible.

    Yeah I would say its unlikely. It's carried through skin to skin contact not body fluids to my understanding.. I could be wrong tho. Have you started using a new soap or laundry detergent maybe it's an allergic reaction to something..
