I have oral herpes (cold sores). my 5 month old daughter grabbed my lip with her hand and then?


Question:
I have oral herpes. my 5 month old daughter grabbed my lip with her hand and then put her hand in her mouth for a second. I tried cleaning her hand and mouth. What should I do? What is the chance that she contracted oral herpes?

Answers:
i mean the since the chances are not that high i mean you get herpes from sexual contact so i doubt it if anything will happen.
I wouldn't worry too much. Many, many people have this type of herpes. It's control able. Maybe you should try abreva, it works wonders.
There's a very good chance there won't be any issue whatsoever. However, unfortunately Herpes simlex (oral) can be passed thru to children when they are born as it's in your system...just like parents who have periodic 'warts' on a finger or toe or whatever, can pass that 'virus' to their children too. All are Very treatable, with natural methods, regardless...so try and relax! :o)
dont worry every one has cold sores and they are no big deal
i think you have to get a little more contact than that.
but, i wouldn't know.
i've never had a cold sore.
i would keep a eye on her to make she does'nt have anything on her mouth. if so make sure you get to a doctor right away
haha.where has your mouth been?
I kiss my husband all the time, and after 18 years, have yet to get a cold sore from him. My sister gets them too, and I've kissed her TONS over my lifetime, and yet nothing for me.
