1. Yes. You can be infected with herpes for years before symptoms arise. In fact, most people with herpes never experience symptoms at all. For more details on herpes, I strongly recommend the website below. It will give you reliable, easy-to-read information about herpes. Good luck.
2. Yes, herpes can go dormant and incubate for years. Another disease back on the rise in the US is syphilis...it too can present in a painless sore at first infection then not surface again for years. Please, get a checkup and have an std screen done. The Dr can swab the sore and tell you exactly what it is. Be safe
