GINGIVITIS etc.

GINGIVITIS etc.

hi all,

I have had 3 independent bouts of gingivitis over the past 2-3 weeks.

My gums have had obvious ulceration but strangely painless and red and bleeding spontaneously and when touched.

I am currently 3 weeks past symptoms and 7-8 weeks past a high risk exposure.

Weightloss of around 3-4 kg also.

Can this be due to HIV primary infection causing acute immunosuppression?

Could stress from this whole exposure/ testing be accountable for this?  

Thanks

Alan

Try going to a dentist and getting your teeth cleaned, brush more often and floss.
