I just found out that my boyfriend is positive for HSV1 (which is pretty common) however neither of us has ever had a cold sore in our lives. About a month ago I got this little pin prick bumps on various fingers that then went away after a doctor gave me some prednisolone for 10 days. Now 2 weeks later I started getting the bumps again but they look more like blisters but don t hurt at all and just stay the same for the most part. They aren t very red either and don t hurt to touch. Im just worried that maybe I have HSV1 too and since I bite my nails on occasion now I have herpetic whitlow. Is this a super common infection to get?
