Thank you Terri!

I think I am able to ask one more question? If not, please let me know.

I’m assuming I do have Genital H2. What I’m hoping is that the sore in my mouth is Not H2. I know it’s rare, but some people do have it and right now the information I do have makes me think the sore in my mouth is H2. Is the swab culture at all able to tell which herpes is present?

What is the best way to tell if an intra-oral sore is H2 vs H1?

Thank you
