Strange question
by jax863, Jul 02, 2009 08:43AM
I am hoping someone can help me. I am going out of my mind. I drank very heavily the other night and ended up making out with a guy. The problem is that this was immediately after I had burnt my tongue pretty badly with a lit cigarette. I guess I was to drunk to feel that it was hurt and made out with the guy anyway. Please inform me if this would require testing. I know they say kissing is not a way to transmit hiv unless you had open mouth sores. Now I am scared because this was immediately after I made my tongue raw. I do not remember if there was blood. I just know that I had that weird burn feeling on the tip of my tongue the next day. Help please!

Kissing is not a concern, you had no HIV risk.

thanks for replying. i understand that kissing without any mouth issues is safe. this was after burning my tongue with fire [immediately after] . wouldnt this allow the virus to enter the exposed damaged tongue tissue. i have heard that the tongue is highly vascularized so i guess i am just really concerned that this would allow transmission directly into the bloodstream.

Your understanding is incorrect...kissing no matter what is not a HIV risk. Saliva inhibits HIV.
