New HSV 1 oral genital/breast changes

I am 40 recently contracted hsv 1 orally and genitally.  i just did my first mammogram about 3 weeks ago results were normal.  I looked down today and my breast look so different.  Can you experience changes in your breast after contracting HSV 1. To give a little info. the little spots on your areola are raised and what use to be under the skin is now slightly raised no pain.  I guess my question is can a person who never had the hsv 1 virus contract it on their breast?  This has been horrible not to mention i think this could have spread to my nose and eyes.  Before I knew I had this I did a cemical peel on my skin.  Again people just do not know how they are effecting your life when they with hold the truth. I am dealing with so much because of a lie.  And this is from HSV 1 the one everyone keeps saying isnt a big deal.  Please this is hell.

I was wondering if you're still here.  How are you a year later?  I am well... and I hope you are.  HSV1 is horrible and nothing at all, at the same time.  Depends where you get it, I suppose.  I've lived with cold sores my entire life.  I guess I'm happy that it offers me almost full immunity from getting HSV1 elsewhere on the body and partial immunity for HSV2 exposure.  Have to look at the bright side.  

Anyway, when you're not viewing this from a panic/fear prospective, you can think through it rationally.  Have a great day.

Is this really true? Does having having hsv orally offer protection from it transferring (hypothetically) from oral kissing and then transferring through say breast kissing/ contact by a partner even if you had no signs present?
