Oral Sex From A Meth User. Lesions On Penis. Is This Herpes?

I received oral sex from a meth user. She was smoking it and performing fellatio at the same time. I now have lesions on my penis. I am worried about Herpes and attended a clinic three days ago. I still have over a week and a half to get results and am going crazy. I have never smoked meth nor had an STD. Is there any chance the meth caused these lesions? It's a stretch but I'm hanging on to hope that it's not Herpes.

Hi thanks for using healthcare magic

Meth users can experience skin sores. It is slightly possible that the contact between the meth and your genitalia may have resulted in the lesions.

Meth users and persons who use other ilicit drugs are more likely to contract sexually transmitted infections.

There are two herpes viruses, herpes 1 and herpes 2. Herpes 1 is mainly found in the mouth though herpes 2 can also be found in this region.

Though it cannot be cured there are medications that can effectively treat it.

I hope this helps
