Hello,
I had protected sex with a sex worker about 8 weeks back. There was no condom break and it was just for about 5 minuets. she was above to have her periods. I saw some blood on teh condom and then I stopped and washed my self. Before this I fingered her and she came. hope some vaginal fluids were around her vagina. I had a rash on my groin. Earlier i miss understood this as Psoriasis (Which I already have for 5 years) but later after 4 weeks after i met the doctor it was identified as Tinea (Ring worm rash) and he gave some medicine for that. Now it is controlling. Do I have a risk of acquiring HIV by her vaginal fluids touching on my rash.
During past few weeks I had several symptoms but not together or in a systematic way. I had body aches, and also neck + back pain. Elevated white blood count which was controlled by antibiotics. Then a sore throat and neck pain which was diagnosed by ENT as a stress package and controlled with exercise and some medicine specially for gastritis. Also again I had long lasting elevated white blood count than normal which was reduced after my ring worm is controlled. I still have a mild sore throat and feel little chills some times. I never has elevated temperature.
Later after 6 weeks from exposure I checked my self as well as that sex worker for HIV antibody and both came negative (Test was done using rapid immunochromatography method).
01. Do I have a risk of HIV which I need to worry and do i need to check at 12 weeks mark
02. Can HIV transfer through a ring worm rash by contact
03. DO HIV produce different symptoms time to time during ARS
04. am i worrying un necessarily on this?
Thanks
