HIV concern
I recently travelled to Mexico (4 months ago) and picked up a girl in a bar. Later that night we had protected sex, afterwards I removed the condom and masturbated to finish. I have what seems to be a skin tag at the base of my penis which I think was covered by the condom. It has been there for a couple of years. I am extremely concerned that I contracted HIV, I had a sore throat and dry cough about 6 or 7 weeks after. What are the chances of contracting HIV in this scenario? Can HIV pass through a skin tag ? If it is not a skin tag and is a wart can it pass through that way if exposed? How long does a HIV rash last as I don't think I had one? Please help me with these answers as the info on the net is confusing. I also recently had a bad cold with a lot of green mucous. Thanks
HIV cannot be transmitted through skin, regardless of skin tags, warts, etc. Your only issue is paranoia as a result of having sex with a sex worker.
What about the risks involvEd with masturbating on to her vagina and any kind of splash back? Also what if I already had the herpes virus, are the risks high with what happened?
