Then it's very unlikely that you have hsv 1 genital.

Thank you for your reply. But it is not a sure thing right?

It's very very unlikely but not 100 % impossible i think. You could have been infected on both areas at the same time when you kiss someone with a herpes sore on the mouth and he/she gives you oral sex as well. But you have had cold sores for several years so I guess that you have had it since childhood.
