i made out with this girl i've known for a while the other night at a party, and 2 days later she texted me saying she had a cold sore that night. and i woke up today and i have what i think is a cold sore on the outside of my lower lip. am i gonna get any other signs of oral herpes or just cold sores? and am i now at risk for genital herpes? am i stuck this way for life?


Answer:
'Cold Sores' are the visible outbreak of 'Oral Herpes' - kinda like the mushroom of the fungi - bad example.

Additional risk?
'Oral Herpes' and 'Genital Herpes' are USUALLY 2 different strains: HSV1 & HSV2 (usually, but not always) You can get either strain (or both) either place (or both). But HSV1 does not 'change' to HSV2 (or 2 to 1).
If you’re an 'oral' person, you CANNOT do 'oral' while 'broken out' anywhere!

For life?
Until some drug company thinks there’s enough money to be made from a cure! But they seem to be more interested in creating recipes for outbreak prevention or suppresion!
The longer you’ve a Herpes virus, the more you might come to recognize prodrome - which is an indescribable physical sensation that an outbreak might be imminent!


Answer:
There are no cure for cold sores only medicines that treat symptoms. If you perform oral with a partner you can infect them with herpes.
