In 40 years of practice, I have seen one patient who told me that she had a history of cold sores and had a positive HSV one swab from the genital area. I don’t know if her history was correct and unfortunately, she declined to have an antibody test so we could not tell if this was a new infection or an established infection. It is also possible that she acquired oral infection and genital infection years ago at the same sexual encounter. I think the chances of you transmitting HSV one from your mouth to your genitals, after being infected for 10+ years, is incredibly low. I don’t know what a red laser is and why are using it but as far as I know there’s no scientific proof that something like that is effective. If you have a placebo-controlled well done study that you would like me to look at to learn more about this technique and machine, I would be happy to look at it.
