Am I infected with herpes HSV 1/2??
Hi Doctor,
I had an unprotected exposure (fellotia). I am male.
After 24 days(3weeks of exposure), my results of hsv tests were:
IGM: hsv1=0.1, hsv2=0.2
IGG: hsv1=0.4, hsv2=0.1
After 41 days(6 weeks) of exposure again hot tested for hsv and my results were:
IGM: hsv1=0.1, hsv2=0.2
IGG: hsv1=0.6, hsv2=0.4
Symptoms wise I don't have any symptoms apart from small white spots on lips which a dermatologist on Practo said to be Fordyce spots after looking at the images.
I am very tensed. Please guide me if I have herpes or not.
Kindly let me know.
Thank you..!
