88 months ago

HI DOCTOR.

I come from China. yesterday I made l massage.the lady tell me she has reoccur oral herpes .And reoccur yesterday morning.She has some blister in her mouth and

lips. Then she touch her lips.And immediately touch my penis for about 10 sec.when i found out .I stop her. When it happend ,I wore underpants.BUT the fabric is thin. I am very nervous about this. SO I have some questions:

1Is it possible to infect genital herpes through this route?

2If she has oral herpes liquid in his hands, can herpes virus reach my skin pass through underwear and infect me?

3Should I have to do a blood test for this event?

4Will she leave her residue on my underwear, then I will contact his residue with my genitals and then infect herpes?
