oral herpes
Tara asked:


Okay, I was sick (see last question posted by me) and today I went to the hospital. I was told that I have blisters on my throat, causing pain, vomiting, fever ect. Now are blisters oral herpes? And are oral herpes a form of std? I was given no medicine because they say that its a viral infection.
So now I’m worried that I have an STD. The doctor just called them blisters
Thank you for all your answers up front.

    If you have seen a physician and he said they were blisters, then I would take the advice you paid for and NOT worry anymore !!

    The doctor would have told you if they were a form of herpes.

    Oral herpes is not necessarily an STD, as they can be transmitted without sexual contact. Commonly known as “cold sores” or “fever blisters”, the medicinal term is herpes simplex-1. It is contagious and can be spread by kissing or sharing a beverage with someone who has an active blister.

    Herpes simplex-2, or ******* herpes, are transmitted via sexual contact and are the form which most people refer to as an STD.

    Even so, you should ask your doctor.

    We can’t see the blisters, so we can’t tell you for certain, and besides, none of us are doctors. Why would you ask non-doctors to confirm whether or not you have an STD?
