ARS is acronym for Acute Retroviral Syndrome

ARS represents a syndrome of symptoms associated with primary HIV infection. ARS develops between 2nd and 4th week after the infection.

The most common symptoms are fever, fatigue, sore throat, lymphadenopathy, weight loss, myalgias, headache, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and rash.

Not all people who have been infected with hiv develop ars.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT ARS SINCE YOU CAN'T ACQUIRE HIV FROM THE INCIDENCE YOU'VE MENTIONED, PRACTICALLY, ORAL SEX IS NO RISK !
