HIV and diarrhea

[kartelziko]

IF you experience diarrhea as a result of HIV does it mean you will have diarrhea every time when you go to toilet? For example if you have a constant diarrhea for 1 month but only 1 time a day (other times you dont have it) is it still considered a sympthom of HIV? And if you have a diarrhea as a result of HIV does it hurts you or not? For example if you just experience diarrhea but no pains is it still considered HIV symphtom or not?

Thanks for your time to comment. Appreciated. But I had an exposure, I could have had a sharp nail, as she started to bleed and my fingers were covered in her  blood. I had the cut in the thumb an I could have atouched the other fingers with it.

You never had an exposure. HIV is not transmitted by fingering.

Hi Teak,I was under risk 2 and a half months ago. I fingered a girl and suddenly she started to bleed. I had a cut on my thumb about 3 days before that. The blood was on my middle fingers but I cant remember touching it with my thumb, I think I did . We had protected sex for most of the time together. Now I have diarrhea kind of thing. I go to the toilet once a day, but everytime I pass near fluid like waste. My question is, is it normal to have diarrhea once a day for a month or so as a symptom of hiv?

You didn't have a risk of contracting HIV.
