How Can Genital Herpes Be Prevented?
I have a cold sore and I was just kissing my boyfriend and he went down on me, while he hasn’t broken out in a blister/cold sore does that still leave me with the chance of getting gentile herpes? Or does he need to have the outbreak and the blister for it to transfer??

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
You can take precautions while most skin disease is contagious. Bath with Dettol soap. Wash affected part with Dettol. Take Acivir cream and apply on affected site. Take Fluconazole for 2 days.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
