Heyy on 5th Jan 2017 i met a guy online and decided to meet him in person...im 20Y male...we kissed and i took his dick in my mouth for a max of 5 sec cause i didnt like it...he did not cum in my mouth and i dont have any cuts in my mouth...the next day i started having pain in my throat and cough as well...i went to the doc he told me its due to the weather change nothing to worry and in 2-3 days i was healthy and fine...but reading online it made me wonder if i got infected....i asked the guy to test himself and he came out to be negative...now after 7 weeks i have developed this rash on my face...i went to a doc and he told me its photodermatitis and im taking medication for it...its just been a day that im taking the medication for photodermatitis....im thinking to get myself tested on 5th March....should i be worried ?

Oral sex is NOT a risk for HIV. Human saliva contains enzymes and bacteria that render the virus inactive. (Unable to infect)

Oral sex can put you at risk for other STD's and I would advise posting to our STD Forum for their advice about testing.  

Photodermatitis is an abnormal skin reaction to sunlight, or more specifically to ultraviolet (UV) rays. It can be acute (sudden) or chronic (ongoing). Photodermatitis occurs when your immune system reacts to UV rays. You may develop a rash, blisters, or scaly patches.

Photodermatitis has nothing to do with HIV or any of the STD's. Follow the treatment plan your dermatologist has prescribed and you'll be fine.

If testing is the only thing that will give you peace of mind, then by all means test. Sure beats living with anxiety.

Good. Because you never had a reason to worry.
