[Question #8868] Ghsv1

I contracted GHSV1 over 4 years ago. I had one initial outbreak and haven’t had once since. My daughter has now experienced a lump on her vaginal lip and one lump near the buttocks during her period. Do you think I transmitted it via sand toilet seat? Or am I just paranoid? She isn’t sexually active in any capacity.

HSV is not transmitted via toilet seats, no. I believe that your concern is not necessary or realistic. If there is a concern about this lump then perhaps she should be seen by a professional to evaluate the bump but she didn't get HSV 1 from you from a toilet seat or any other inanimate object.
