Okay so I know this question is not the most educated but I looked for my question on other threads and did not find it. I am wondering if there is any risk of getting herpes if someone has an active sore and use an e cigarette and then I touch it and then touch my penis. I am wondering how contagious the virus is and if there’s any risk of spreading that way. I remember reading in the past that herpes only lives for like 4-5 hours is that true? In everyday life people having cold sores and infections what are the risks of me touching the virus indirectly and catching it. Thank you. I will stop asking questions. I have a new phys appointment in 2 weeks

I'm gob smacked that you ignored Dr. Handsfield's warning and immediately return to the Forum with another nonsensical question.  HSV is NOT transmitted through the sort in indirect contact you describe.  See your counselor. .  Closing the thread now..  DO NOT RETURN TO THE FORUM WITH SIMILAR QUESTIONS.---
