Yes, it is possible to have both HSV-1 (commonly associated with oral herpes) and HSV-2 (typically linked to genital herpes). If you already have one type of herpes virus in a specific location such as genitals from HSV-2, you can still acquire the other type like HSV-1 on your lips. It's important to practice safe sex methods and consult healthcare professionals for proper management if needed.
