Did they type it? My friend had a similar event, but it turned out to be herpes 2. But yours is herpes 1. If it is you might not ever have another outbreak. My friends boyfriend had herpes two on his inner thigh and that’s how he passed it.
Hsv is not concentrated in bodily fluids. Saliva is a very inefficient way to spread the virus. Saliva actually help break down the virus and kill it. I surely do not think you contracted hsv from this. In fact I have never had anyone contract the virus like you describe.
Hello~I don't think you can contract herpes from spitting, but I would certainly make an appointment with a gyn to make sure and to find out why you are having the pain and extra secretions.
Spitting can't spread herpes. It is fragile and inactivated in air. Check with your doc or a clinic to find what you have but it isn't herpes.
