I can understand that you are frightened. Herpes simplex virus infection is the most common cause of genital ulcers in the United States. The herpes simplex virus is most commonly transmitted in the saliva of an infected person. It is very likely that your husband contracted the virus by contact with the saliva of an infected person.
Wait for the results of the culture. With a diagnosis, your physician can prescribe the proper anitviral medication to treat your infection.
Please try to relax. Herpes simplex viral infections are treatable.
