bite on ear lobe concern

[concerned749]

Doctor,

I recently went to a strip club where a stripper bit/nibbled on my ear lobe. Earlier hat morning i cut/nicked my ear lobe while shaving and later that night after i got home from the club i noticed that lobe bled a little in the same place where i nicked and she bit it.  I know from other posts that biting is not a way to transmit HIV but I just wanted to post my own situation. Please tell me your thoughts, and whether there is an issue with transmission.

Thanks

doctor,

One follow up question, as I have stupidly been reading the internet about biting. Any change in your opinion if the biter had a cut/blood in her mouth?

Thanks

Hello

Thanks for the post. You can relax. This does not represent a threat to you at all in any way.

The prospect of an HIV transmission this way is a nightmare fantasy and not reality.

You should forget this.

kind regards, Sean
