How soon can i get a HIV test done

Sir ,

I have had a protected sex ( with condoms ) with a sex worker in mumbai , ther was no Kissing only hugging and post that i developed a fear in my mind for going for HIV testing , and also a got one such test done ( HIV Tri Dot Card test ) after 4 days  of contact . now the results show negative and now after reading thru internet found that Test's have to be taken after 3 month to get  reliable accuracy confirmation of possible infection .
Please advice whether to go for another test ???

Awaiting for your response

You had a condom on during your hoe smacking fiesta, you don't need to test. HIV can't be transmitted through hugging. You seem to be very ignorant when it comes to the know - how of this disease, seek HIV counseling and move on. You are clean
