      I had what I think was genital herpes at christmas one circle sore on topside of penis a week prior I was with a bloke were we mutual masturbated each other and some our penis rubbing togetherand finish with him giving me oral .
      3 or 4 days later I had thw tingle and then 2 days later I noticed the sore .since then I have had what I think was one recurrence

      HSV 1 doesn’t recur often – about once every other year, on average, but with lots of variability between people. Many people never get a recurrence. HSV 2 recurs more often – on average, probably 4-6 times during the first year. I think the mutual masturbation did not put you at risk of acquiring herpes but the oral sex could have, in which case, if you do have herpes, it would be type 1, most likely, not type 2.

      There was also me laying on top of him frotting but my sore was on the topside of my penis under foreskin
      And so I thought skin where sore was would had to be in contacy with infrcted skin
      The area where i got sore would have been rubbing off me

      First I think the frottage risk is low, the oral sex is the risk. Are you wondering if he may have been infected by you, is that your question?

      Yes, if indeed you do have new herpes, which we don’t know, right (we don’t know if it is herpes and we don’t know if you had it before this encounter) then the most likely scenario would be that you acquired it from him giving you oral sex, that is correct.

      Terri .
      I purchased more questions
      Yesterday and today my foreskin and penis head are very red and have burning sensation .
      could this be a symptom or would u say more like thrust or balanitis.

      If it is generalized redness, it is more likely to be fungal. If the redness is a sore, then we should once again consider herpes. But herpes does not cause generalized redness – the lesions are more discrete.

      The redness has calm down to area where original was .is burning sensation a symptom because this has been continuous for past two days. and if this is a recurring episode why is sore compared to primary outbreak

      Also the only part that is now red is the area in which I had origin sore this is about the size of uk one pence.

      The generalized burning does not really worry me but the coin sized area that continues to stay red is a bit more a concern. Are you able to have this swab tested?

      Hi terri .
      I have found a place that does blood test it at other end of country lol.
      Going to arrange an appointment in future weeks.
      the red area is normally redder than rest of skin as it is sort of scarred from first sore I had.
      my first sore was oval shape about size of pencil eraser.there was no redness or pain during the time i had it ,and it lasted a month from when I noticed It .

      Hi Terri.
      I renewed again.
      Thanks for all the helpful info .
      Before I arrange blood test i was just wondering if I described my first symptoms does it sound like herpes event happened on a Tuesday .bit of naked outercourse , mutual masturbation then me receiving oral .then monday noticed oval shaped piece of skin size of pencil eraser on foreskin no redness no pain. This was on monday 29th December and didn’t clear up until friday 29th of jan when it eventually closed over .
      Thanks again

      Normally a herpes sores would not last a month, no. And yes, normally herpes has redness and often but not always pain.

      Terri .
      I am really sorry for asking the same question but I know I aint been tested yet but what would you say the odds of transmission through naked outercourse frottage 5 mins maybe. Its just the medhelp forum dr hansfield and dr hook have said they never had cases and u also said you dont think you have ever seen a case .

      I am ever so grateful of the support you give .

      Cheers a

      I don’t think I’ve ever see that either. It is the oral that worries me and the sore.

      Hi terri
      I was wondering if you could tell me on a scale of 1 to 100 how low is the risk of contracting hsv2 from frottage .
      my appointment was for Saturday and because of parades all over the place traffic was terrible so I missed my appointment .
      Thank you

      hi
      terri .
      i have come bk as i have had an outbreak of what i believe my first oral outbreak .have had small blisters develop on and around lip,when one goes another shows up.this has being goibg on for 3 weeks and also had sore throat runny nose and a cough .so if it is herpes i have on genital would it b hsv 2 from frottage.
      thanks

      Did you have these lesions swab tested? This is the ONLY way to know if these particular lesions are herpes. If it is has been going on for three weeks, it may be too late to do any accurate swab testing. Runny nose and sore throat are not normally part of a herpes symptom set.. I do not believe that if the only contact was frottage that you would get oral symptoms, that doesn’t make much sense to me.

      what i meant as i had oral contact with person who had coldsore too .
      when i referred to frottage i was referring to previous post.
      can a person get herpes from penis to penis outercourse
      thank u

      While it is logically possible to get HSV 2 from rubbing two penises together, if there are no lesions present when that happens, I think that is really unlikely.

      That may be true, but there were no open sores on his penis when you were doing the frottage, right? Have you had this swab tested yet?
