Can you get herpes on your breasts?

[Anonymous]

If you let someone suck your nipples and lick your breasts can you contract herpes?

I did some googling... You can get herpes in a surprising amount of places, including in your brain and your hair follicles! It seems that you can indeed get it on your breasts. However, I think its very uncommon, and probably not transmitted on contact. So you can, but not the way you're asking I think.

Why? Do you have blisters?

[LauraMarx]

actually I'm wrong. It can definitely pass through contact, anywhere on the body. So the answer is yes! It's called "Herpes simplex mastitis", and there's an article about it here: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3327394/

basically its rare, but has happened at least once.

Did you let some random guy suck on your tits? Is that where this extremely odd question came from?
