Scared of HIV inffection
I kissed a person with 3days old lip cut . the person i kissed could be who could be hiv+.. i dont know if there were any blood transferred because it was night.. If there were any blood touched my 3days old lip cut.. any risk there.? please help
A 3 day old cut would have already healed over.No point of entry at all.Please move on now.
Im sorry I'll make sure this is my last question.. I just wanted clear few things .. What if she had a lip cut and if it was bleeding, is there any chances for virus to enter though my 3old cut? I understand that saliva inactivate the virus in side of there mouth but i was just wondering, if she had any blood on her lip
I know what your question was but you didn't read my response.Hiv is not transmitted by kissing under any circumstance.You're safe.
thank you very much... but my question was . if she had a blood on her lip and her blood touched my 3DAYS OLD cut on lip...can i be infected?
HIV is not transmitted via kissing,cuts or no cuts because saliva contains many different proteins and enzymes that render the HIV virus inactive.You never had a risk.All the best.
