Usually Herpes is transmitted to the naturally moist areas of the body or mucosal surfaces of the body.

Usually oral , genital and eyes. You can also get on the skin just next to the oral mucosa or genital mucosa like arond the male and female genital organs, arond the mouth or in the eye which is moist all the time. When i said naturally moist area ,i meant mainlly mucosal surfaces. Probably you will not get it between the breast. If you got it between breast it is probably unusual . You can see your doctor to confirm the diagnosis.
