Oral Herpes and sex
I had oral herpes for the very first time 3 weeks back and don't know how it happened. And the blisters are gone and healed with new skin. Is it safe for sex/oral sex/kiss now with my partner as she is not infected.

When the lesions are active it can infect not after it heals, recurrence is known though . Get immediate treatment when it comes back.
