blood & fear
Dear ..
I have a bad experience. That is, i went a saloon for saving. A man was saving me. In this time he cut and some bleeding. I saw a cut in his hand that area touching my cut. Although, he use savlon antiseptic cream & his cut was 3/4 days old and no red blood found but wet. Am i in a risk of HIV or others disease? Please, answer me! I am very concern.

HIV is unable to reproduce outside its living host (unlike many bacteria or fungi, which may do so under suitable conditions), except under laboratory conditions; therefore, it does not spread or maintain infectiousness outside its host.
Thanks all for inspire.
No, you aren't at risk for HIV from the situation that you have provided and don't need testing. You should just forget about this and move on with your life.
You have no HIV risk.
