like yeahhhsrlyghk

Answer 1

only a mild form of  it..  

Answer 2

Genital herpes is sexually transmitted, unless the other person has oral herpes, in which case if you kiss them you can get it too. Unless you're talking about herpes ZOSTER, which is a totally different thing, it is like a flare up of chicken pox that the person may have had earlier in their life. If you come in contact with someone who has herpes zoster, you could get chicken pox from them if you have never had it, but you wont catch the herpes zoster (also known as shingles)

Answer 3

Yes, if she kisses you.

Answer 4

No, unless we're talking about cold sores, which 90% of the population has anyway, so it's not a big deal.  in order for you to get genital herpes, the contact would have to be sexual.

Answer 5

Genital herpes is a sexually transmitted disease, or STD. (This means it spreads from person to person during vaginal, anal, or oral sexual contact.) It is caused by a virus.

For treatment of Genital Herpes there are two medicines are available in the market Valtrex and Acyclovir

Answer 6

There are different types of herpes. All are contagious viral infections. So if your mom has oral or nasal herpes (cold sores), then it is quite possible to catch from normal everyday contact.

If the herpes is genital then sexual contact is required.

Chickenpox and Shingles are also types of herpes.

Answer 7

No. It takes sexual contact.
