Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I was scratched by a fellow co worker. He handles a lot of things the boss touches and the boss has an active cold sore. The boss picks the cold sore a lot.
I am HSV1 and HSV2 free. Am I likely to catch herpes from the scratch the co worker gave me? How possible is 3rd party contraction ?
