Yes,you can.Herpes simplex viruses -- more commonly known as herpes -- are categorized into two types: herpes type 1 (HSV-1, or oral herpes) and herpes type 2 (HSV-2, or genital herpes). Most commonly, herpes type 1 causes sores around the mouth and lips (sometimes called fever blisters or cold sores). HSV-1 can cause genital herpes, but most cases of genital herpes are caused by herpes type 2.

Herpes simplex types 1 and 2 both cause genital herpes. They don't "turn into" genital herpes -- they're the germ that you catch to get genital herpes.

No herpes doesn't cause other illnesses, it's not related to any thing.

Genital herpes will not turn into another disease.

Neither genital herpes nor oral herpes (cold sores) can turn into chickenpox. Although the viruses that cause herpes and chickenpox are in the same viral family, they are not the same virus.
