stupid thing
Ok in late 2004, i was 16 i was stupid and i got my tongiue pierced twice, the 2nd time they messed it up (either hit a vein or scar tissue because it was continually bleeding) my question is bc before thepiercer peirced me (she took new needle n tongs out of a sterile package) but she went to go get sumthin so she stuck the needle through her glove (the point was on the outside) got up and got something (which i kno is unsanititary). Then i think she may have put it in some ointment before she pierced me. My question is IF she was indeed HIV pos (she had amny tattoes) and if she had pricked or grazed ehrself with the needle was i at high risk for HIV transmission?????!!!
Hey i know you must get this asked alot, but it it true that HIv deactivates when exposed to air immediately?
