can I get herpes this way
today i used a restroom at a rest stop, before using the restroom i washed my hands at the sink in which my shirt came into contact with the sink. as I used the toilet I did not sit on it i squatted so my shirt sort of draped over my genitals, could i contract herpes this way? also while squatting i believe my pants also came into contact with the toilet for a duration of possibly 10 seconds maybe a little more, im not exactly sure, and when i pulled up my pants, they brushed against my skin, could this cause herpes transmission? I also have a small boil on the under part of my butt cheek, I dont know if my pants brushed against it, but if it did could i get herpes like that? thank you for all replies, If its not certain i got herpes can I atleast know how high my risk of transmission was for each situation? thank you im paranoid and freaked out by all of this
Anything is possible but I don't see any real Risk here at all... The virus doesn't live that long outside the body especially on hard Surfaces... I wouldn't worry about it if I were you
