HIV is not transmitted via oral sex. No matter what else the person has going on. Other STD's are possible. And we can explore that in the STD community if you wish.

ok one last question...I gave and recieve oral sex with a man who had a bump or something on his penis...He told me that it was a keloid and he had it since he was 5 but i dont know if thats true. If it indeed a wart or herpes can I get HIV from giving him oral...there is no pre-cum or semen exchanged and i had no open sores in my mouth either I just fear that the bump was herpes or warts and I just wanted to know could I get HIV from his bumps...sorry to worry you I just want to know...
