@drglaucomflecken: #stitch with @Ramona Waldhart #greenscreen HSV-1 is really common. Don’t feel bad if you have it, just don’t kiss anybody with open mouth sores.
HSV 1 is also a lot more common on the genitals now because so many people don’t know NOT to give oral with a cold sore 🫠🫠

Because my mom was a scientist, she called my cold sores herpes. So I told everybody in my 3rd grade class I had herpes. 🤦♀️

Thank goodness there’s science, because I learned this before I dated and lived with someone who had HSV-1. I’m still clear 15 years later.

I had an extremely stressful birth with my second child. Within hours of having him I got a cold sore. I pretty much stayed away from him for three weeks just to make sure. He’s all clear but man that was a rough three weeks to not be near my newborn 😭

And definitely please GOD do NOT kiss any babies! What is generally a mild infection in big kids and grown ups can be deadly in infants.

I've had both herpes simplex in the eye, which reoccurred twice on the right and caused a cataract, and shingles on the left side.

Estimates are more like 80% for hsv-1 and 25% for hsv-2 for adults.

Yes I have the facial virus and have not infected any one. 4 children, 3 are now adults. It sucks to have it, just be mindfull of how you interact others during those flare ups. It stops being infectous to others in time just wait it out.

My kid has ocular hsv. The scar on his cornea from his first infection will never go away. Makes me rage when I think about whoever kissed him as a baby.
