Can Type 1 HSV Blisters On Penis Is Consistent With Warts?

For a few years I have been using a vibrator (designed for muscle massage) against my penis during masturbation. The last two times I used it, I immediately developed small blisters (3 to 9) in the area of contact. I have had a blood test for the HSV antibody. Negative for type 2 and positive for type 1. I have had type 1 for many years and occasionally I will have a fever blister. I'm over 40. I realize I may have developed type 1 in the genital area. I don't believe my condition is consistent with warts based on what I have read and the images I have seen. Are there other possibilities? Could it be strictly mechanical? Thanks

Hi,

If you had unprotected sex - need to rule out sexually transmitted infection.

If not it can be due to friction caused by vibrator caused ulcer. Yes once HSV positive always positive. If you had oral sex with a HSV 1 infected person then you can get HSV 1 genetal rash.

Warts are more related to HPV not HSV. HSV causes ulcers with mild pain.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
