can a genital herpe look like a small canker sore? I have one about an inch from my labia. It didn't hurt or itch. Could it be a herpe?

that's not true. Do YOU have herpes?
by Violet on April 8th, 2009
How can someone get oral herpes by sharing bathwater? This simply isn't true unless you're snorkeling while having oral sex.
by Phillis - Zacks little sister on April 9th, 2009
Where do you see anything about bathwater? I said you can catch herpes if you have sex/oral sex with them even if they don't have any sores at that time.

Oh, crap. nevermind, Namaste. Similar question, got mixed up with the other one. My mistake.
by Phillis - Zacks little sister on April 9th, 2009
PHILLIS- I meant, what do you think of the statement, you can give herepes even without an outbreak. From ALL the doctors I have talked to and other people with herpes I know, and personal experience, it is FALSE. UNLESS it is suck a minor outbreak, they do not KNOW they are even having one..

Read the 4th section Herpes is highly contagious.
by Namaste formerly future_health_educator on April 9th, 2009
YES!!! That's one of the reasons 6 out of 9 people have been exposed to it! The carrier thinks they are not contagious because they are asymptomatic. WRONG, WRONG, WRONG.
by Phillis - Zacks little sister on April 9th, 2009
NAMASTE- and you believe ask. com, as a reliable resource for medical information... I'm sorry but not only is that information wrong, but you are giving people bad information.
PHILLIS- can you explain the difference between an asymptomatic herpes outbreak and NO outbreak. Or am I wrong?
by Violet on April 9th, 2009
NAMASTE-
ASK. COM says you can speard herepes with an outbreak and during a shedding period. That's it.:
"Unfortunately all forms of Herpes do not only spread when
there is an outbreak although this is the period where the risk
is at it highest. Most of the time the virus is
latent but can still spread even when there is no outbreak. In
the so called viral shedding period the virus is also contagious.
The viral shedding period is when the virus reproduces itself and can be easily
be passed on to others via skin contact. This can happen without visible symptoms"
by Violet on April 9th, 2009
Sure! Asymptomatic only means that there are no outward, visible signs of the virus' handiwork. Just because you are NOT having an outbreak OR the sensations in the skin that tell you one is about to occur, doesn't mean that you cannot spread it. In other words - always consider the affected area as infectious no matter what!
by Phillis - Zacks little sister on April 9th, 2009
ok, thank you. I just want people to be more informed about herepes.
by Violet on April 9th, 2009
Not talking about Namaste, the lack of education on genital herpes is utterly absurd! That is why so many people have been infected, and will continue to be, unfortunately. I will do my part to help others.
by Phillis - Zacks little sister on April 9th, 2009
I've heard some REALLY dumb comments about herpes, lol
by Violet on April 9th, 2009
No kidding!!! It boggles the mind.
by Phillis - Zacks little sister on April 9th, 2009
Well I'm learning a lot now! :) I really appreciate it!
by ItsMe on April 9th, 2009
I'm glad! It is SO important for people to know about STD's
by Violet on April 9th, 2009
Good for you, It'sMe!!! It will keep you safer for life!!!
by Phillis - Zacks little sister on April 9th, 2009
The site I used is web md. Ask.com is a search engine. I don't know why you are so hostile to me. I have done nothing to you. You can say that you don't agree with someone without being hostile.
by Namaste formerly future_health_educator on April 9th, 2009
Who - ME?? I'm not angry at all, Namaste! I rather enjoyed the conversation with you.
by Phillis - Zacks little sister on April 9th, 2009
NAMASTE- I wasn't trying to be mean or hostile. I'm so sorry if I came across that way.
I just wanted ot get as many facts as possible to clear things up.
by Violet on April 9th, 2009
Appologies accepted. I wasn't refering to you phillis But lets forget the whole thing.
