Diagnosed with Herpes

2019-08-07 11:13:54
Hi, my husband has been diagnosed with herpes. He is having red sores on head of penis. He is under medication for five days. I read that herpes virus stays in body. How can I ensure that me and my daughter do not get infected even after my husband recovers the sores. Thank you for your time.
