Rash all over.

Hi Guys,

I have a rash all over my body, mostly concentrated on the right thigh, right hand, my back and butt. The right hand is the worst. They are extremely itchy, red and look like pimples and blotchy. They are everywhere except my tummy and face.

I had an exposure 7 weeks back, where I had a skin peel without bleeding, and fingered a girl in a club. The girl looked like she was a drug user.

I am extreemely worried guys. The rash is spreading rapidly. I also have one canker sore. Does my rash look like its caused by hiv ?

Hi stressed1234,

Hmmm, everyone is telling you it's not HIV, especially since it is itchy.

Have you been tested for herpes? Maybe you might wanna try.

May God bless

It's time to move on. We don't look at pics and 3 people (one of those being a Dr) have said no risk.

I think I am destroyed. The rash is horrible. Its a dreadful sight, and I have never had anything like this before. Couldnt sleep at all, woke up in the morning and this is the sight in front of me.

Do you guys still think this is not due to HIV ?  I dont think so. Getting my test in 3 hours.

No ARS rashes don't itch.  No and No. You never had a risk of contracting HIV and you were also advised of it in the Expert Forum.

Thanks kumar. A couple of final questions.

Does ars rash itch ? Can it be concentrated on a hand and one leg while spreading to other parts ?

Will the rash impact the conclusiveness of a HIV test ?
