Cold Sores? and UTI?

Question:

I was told that if a female gets a UTI she caught it from her sex partner? second question is can you just get a cold sore or have you had to had came in contact with someone and they gave it to you?

Answers:
UTI's aren't usually caused by STDs but they can be, I occassionally get them from sex, but it's from having bacteria entering the urethra by friction and then going to my bladder, not an STD.

Cold sores are caused by the herpes simplex virus type-1 - It's transmitted from person to person - but you don't have to have an actual sore to infect another person, though it spreads easier when you have an active outbreak, and once you have it, you have it for life - I caught it as a child, but haven't had an active sore in 10 years. Most people actually get HSV-1 as children - from their relatives - Granny wants to give you a big kiss!

uti is some kind of imbalance within the urinary tract. nothing you can get from someone. and you can get a cold sore from any kind of oral contact with the infected person, by driving after them or using lipgloss/lipstick to. also alot of people got them at birth from being kissed by someone who has cold sores too.
