If you get a canker sore and give oral can they get genital herpes (STD)?

Like if they bit their lip and got a canker sore, or got it from stress, or whatever, and perform oral on someone can they get genital herpes?

Update:

and how much of a risk would you be at? would it be the same as someone who has genital herpes or whateveR?

Update 2:

and if you got genital herpes, would it be like a one time thing or you would have the STD forever?

    First, a canker sore is a sign of syphilys, not the herpes sore ppl generally call Cold sores or fever blisters.

    As far as the herpes go, generally oral is hsv1 and genital is hsv2. However, yes, it is possible for someone to transfer their oral hsv1 to anothers genital area. It is also possible for you to spread it yourself from your mouth to your genital area. Hsv2 can also be transferred to the mouth the same ways. Both can show up anywhere on the body technically, these are just where they typically show up.

    However, only a doc can tell you for sure if these sores are herpes and which version it is.

    NO canker sores are not related to genital herpes so they don't turn into genital herpes. If some one with a cold sore gives you oral sex then you could get oral herpes on your genitals. Lots of things can cause bumps or lumps down stairs with out being herpes and herpes looks more like a raised blister then a bump / lump. Herpes blisters can also be very pain full and tender to the touch. You could have an in grown hair or cysts or it could be as you said .. just a pimple.

    The problem is that you have to be sure that this is a canker sore, otherwise called an aphthous ulcer. These are benign and are NOT caused by herpes simplex. They are also not contagious.

    If you are not sure this is a canker sore, you shouldn't risk it. It could possibly be herpes simplex I or II, which you can transmit to your partner's genitals. Remember that herpes is forever. If you get herpes, there are medications that can reduce its outbreak, but you will still have eruptions.

    Greetings, the answer is no. If it's a cankor sore then it's caused by stress, an irritation in the mouth, a food allergy, chemical imbalance in the mouth possibly from medications (antibiotics, ect). You have to be sure it's a canker sore though, those are IN the mouth not on the mouth. On the mouth could be what they call a cold sore which is from herpes virus. There are different kinds of herpes virus, one of them causes just cold sores and is not spreadable to the genitals but other kinds cause the cold sores too and are spreadable, so my advice to you would be for the male to wear a condom even for oral, unless you know for sure what you have.

    I so know why you are worried. I use to get canker sores alot. Those have nothing to do with herpes. Canker sores are not contagious but herpes is.

    If you are truly worried take a test that is the best solution. If you find you do get herpes, i would suggest a topical that i use. since using it i have only had 1 outbreak. and the one outbreak started to dry out with in minutes.

    I have included the link.
