Swollen groin

Swollen groin

Is it possible to have swollen nodes both sides of groin 16 months after my last sexual encounter and it to be linked to HIV? I have had these for the past year now.

ARS symptom do not come after more than 6 months. no matter where the node is swollen.

But can they start after 3 months and last over a year?

No, as far as I know from purely internet research, the longest ARS symptom will rarely occur 6 or more weeks after exposure. that's about a month and a half. and once ARS symptoms starts, they do not last over 14 days. although I read somewhere they do not last more than a month.

I can understand your worry, my chillng symptoms has been more than a month and my pain lymp nodes for more than 14 days. yet I am here anxiously waiting for my 2nd month test.

just go for a hiv test for your closure. it's been more than a year. 16 months test is like 530% accurate.

take care

your posting history reveals nothing but you asking questions about symptoms...no exposure...no testing...nothing but symptoms.

if you had unprotected vaginal / anal intercourse AND/OR shared iv drug works with someone who is hiv +...then you had a risk and need to test.

the ONLY way to know one's status is by testing.

NO MORE QUESTIONS REGARDING SYMPTOMS...SYMPTOMS DONT DIAGNOSE HIV ! ! ! !

I had vaginal sex unprotected 16 months ago. Spoke to the lady who says she is clean!!! But had swollen glands in groin, armpit pain, neck nodes under jaw and behind knees. Does that sound like HIV?

swollen nodes indicate viral/bacterial infection, TB, EBV, MONO, etc...  

I have all those nodes in pain too. yes, even my knees... and I won't know what is the cause until I get tested.  So do yourself a favor, get tested! more than a year is very conclusive!

Stop with symptoms and test. You have been told your symptoms are not HIV related but you had a risk. Why don't you just test?

I have the EXACTLY problem of you Freddy!

I have a swollen lymph node on the anterior(?) right part of the neck from 21 February 2009 to now!
And the perhaps a swollen lymph node on the left armpit.

The only "risk" sexual act I have had before the swelling of the node (or of the nodes?) are two protected insertive anal intercourses with street tranny sex workers.

I'm 99,999999% sure the intercourses were protected, but more the swelling continue, more I think something has gone wrong and that I didn't notice failure of the condoms.

I don't see any other explanations, unless you can keep HIV through deep kissing or insertive oral.

Please help!

No you can not get HIV from kissing or oral and you have been told your symptoms have nothing to do with HIV.

Honestly Grendizer and freddie1234 enough. freddir1234 test and stop this junk. Grendiezer see a Dr.

NOBODY in this board can can diagnose you. forget about symptoms, you will go crazy if you base yourself on symptoms.

just get over with the test mates. it will give you peace of mind.
