I'm sorry to hear that you are experiencing this. It is possible to contract hsv-1 through oral sex, even if your partner does not have an active cold sore at the time. It's good that you got tested for hsv-1, but keep in mind that the test may not be able to detect the virus until a few weeks after exposure. In addition to medication, there are some things you can do to manage your symptoms and prevent future outbreaks. These include: keeping the affected area clean and dry wearing loose-fitting clothing to avoid irritation avoiding sexual activity during outbreaks to prevent spreading the virus to your partner using condoms during sexual activity to reduce the risk of transmission
