Can genital herpes travel to your face?

Question

I don't know if i have it, if i have it i would have had it for 4 weeks. i have a bit of itchiness but i'm not sure if it is just in my head or if it is a symptom. so today, my shirt touched my p***s, then later on I accidentally wiped my face, with the same spot, and I have some acne, and I was biting my lip a bit. can it go to my face.

Answer 1

it is possible to transfer genital herpes. first of all u would have to have genital herpes in order to do this. it is possible to transfer genital herpes to the face and oral herpes to your genitals by yourself. if u touched your genitals then touched your face immediately after (ie with in a few seconds after touching your genitals with your shirt then touch your face) then u would have more of a chance. even more likely if u have had s*x with some one who has genital herpes. its usually spread through skin to skin contact (ie through regular s*x or oral s*x).

its kind of rare to get genital herpes on your mouth since it mainly likes to live on the genitals. the itchiness could be from sweat or jock itch. look up some of the symptoms for herpes (mayoclinic.com or webmd.com) and if u have any that match up get tested at your doctor or local clinic and get tested for genital herpes to find out for sure if u have it or not.

Answer 4

Yes, herpes is a virus and can manifest anywhere in your body! It mutates the cells of your body and can show up on your fingers, legs, inside your nose, anywhere! But it is unlikely it traveled from a shirt to your face.  

Answer 5

next times go wash your face with soap as soon as possible.

Answer 6

The virus is spread through:

Sexual contact, including intercourse and oral and anal s*x

Fluid from herpes blisters that gets on other parts of the body

An infected mother passing it on to her child during pregnancy or childbirth

The virus is most contagious when blisters are present. It is also contagious during the "shedding" stage, before blisters or sores are visible. The virus may also spread when inactive between visible outbreaks.
