Did he mention what kind of herpes/the full name? 'Herpes' isn't simply an STD, there are many other diseases/viruses that contain 'herpes' in their scientific names, like shingles as Marie mentioned, or cold sores, etc. When you leave it simply at "herpes" it makes it sound like the STD herpes which in this case I highly doubt that's the situation. Though if it were shingles, that may actually not cause many problem. Shingles isn't really a threat to youths. Out of curiosity, have you had chickenpox before? Shingles doesn't necessarily only develop after chickenpox, but it's caused by a variation of the same virus, so those who have had chickenpox (which is a very large majority of the population) are slightly more likely to develop shingles. I think it's extremely rare to get shingles without ever previously having chickenpox, but I could be wrong.Oh that's a good point. If you haven't had chickenpox yet, that might be what it is, since Shingles is really for older people. Though it isn't impossible for younger people to get it either, it is rare. Either way I'd keep away from people since it is contagious (depending on what it is, and who has had Chickenpox in your family) and clean off things you use.
I did in fact have chickenpox at a young age (toddler) , and yes i do know that Herpes is not just a STD, it's just often passed on through sexual activities as usually the sores/spots/boils appear around the mouth or Private partsMy best guess is that it's shingles, and it's probably hereditary.
Look at your own risk (not me)Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Yup i got shingles all over the back of hand and feet.
Thanks guys for advising me.
But is there a cure is my question.
I'll just say quickly that shingles can be painful and discomforting but is highly curable from what I've read/been told. It can only really be a problem in elderly or if it's left untreated in certain circumstances. So you may be in pain but you're definitely not going to die or something. Obviously just use the medication as intended and it'll do you wonders.Herpes is not curable since it is a virus. It is treatable, the virus will always be in your body, just be dormant.
Herpes is not curable since it is a virus. It is treatable, the virus will always be in your body, just be dormant.To avoid an argument over semantics, I was referring to 'curing' the symptoms, yes the virus that causes shingles will remain in your body, however what I meant was that he won't be living with the symptoms for the rest of his life.
I don't quite understand how you get herpes without sexual contact...he said he has ecszma, it isn't just sex he can get it from
Maybe some animal spreaded it to you? I don't know.
But what I do know is that I hope you get better, and soon, you're fun to play with :D

Sorry, temptation was too much.
Anyways, Hank you probably had contact with somebody/an object that had it, it doesn't matter if it was sexually or not.
