What is this bump in my mouth? could it be an Std that I have spread?

(3 posts)
  1. Okay so I have this bump in my mouth......It looks like a cold sore but i'm not sure if it is one because it does not hurt at all. Okay so first I had it and it was really small, and it hurt. then I thought it was gone. Today I gave oral sex to my boyfriend (without a condom) and afterwards I could really feel the bump, although it does not hurt at all now. . Does anyone know what it is? And is there any way it could have been herpes strain 1? if so and I spread it to him, what will happen to him? thank you please please help
    please stop giving me links and stuff about buying fluancanzole or whatever it's called! I'm asking what the bump was, did I give an Std, and what happens if he has an Std. please I really need help

    Herpes symptoms are only noticeable when outbreaks occur. Otherwise, the virus lies in latency in the neck or lower spine, oftentimes never causing any symptoms at all. In fact, there is virtually no way to identify the presence of the virus until an outbreak occurs.
    The location of the symptoms of herpes depends on the type of the virus – oral herpes symptoms appear in and around the mouth area, and the genital variety appear in and around the genital and anal areas of the body.
    An oral herpes blister is commonly referred to as a cold sore. The outbreak of such a sore begins with a tingling and mile redness of the skin that then develops into a blister that can be quite large and painful. These blisters are usually located very near the lips of the infected person, but herpes symptoms can also be present inside the mouth, particularly on the tongue.

    Herpes-related sores do not look like pimples, but rather blisters that contain fluid. During the cycle of herpes symptoms, these blisters will burst and dry up as the infection comes to a close. It is important to note that the fluid contained in the sores is highly contagious, and when it is present in and around the sore, the infected person is most likely to transmit the disease.
    More advanced symptoms of herpes in the genital area include blisters similar to those that appear in cases of oral herpes. Small blisters, either as individuals or in a group, will form on the skin on or near the genitals. The tops of the blisters will eventually come off and leave open wet sores. The open sores will later dry up as scabs develop during the healing process leaving no scarring. At this time, the lesions are no longer contagious.
    The full cycle of herpes symptoms takes between two and four weeks to complete. The effects are worst for most people during the first out break, usually occurs within a few weeks of the initial transmission of the disease. Subsequent outbreaks of can occur four or five times a year, and the frequency of occurrences should decrease in time, though the virus is always present in the bodies of those infected.
    There are many testing options exists to help people cope with symptoms of herpes. Just consult the accredited std specialists at Local STD Testing Centers. They will advise you what is the best thing to do.

    Usually HSV infects areas around the mouth or around the genitals, causing painful sores resembling fever blisters. HSV Type 1 is a type of herpes that is usually transmitted from person to person by kissing or sharing forks, spoons and other eating utensils when one person has sores present. Usually sores from HSV Type 1 are found around the mouth, but can also occur in the genital area.
