How is Oral herpes transmitted?
Oral herpes- such as cold sores can also be transmitted by direct skin to skin contact. For example a person with a cold sore or blisters can transmit the virus by kissing a person without herpes. Babies are more vulnerable to this transmission as people just want to kiss and hug them all the times. Another form of transmission, is if a herpes sufferer touches the infected area and then touches another person. People with oral herpes should avoid touching their infected area as you do not always wash your hands with soap. When you have Oral herpes you should avoid performing oral sex as you will transmit the virus to the other party.
